| Adjust font size: |
China is ready to actively participate in international cooperation on climate change in a responsible attitude, said Chinese State Councilor Tang Jiaxuan in his talks with visiting British Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott yesterday. Tang said the issue on climate change needs joint efforts from around the world, urging developed nations to transfer technology to developing countries in a more open attitude "in a bid to improve global capability to tackle climate change". "The Chinese government attaches great importance to the climate change issue, and will be guided by the scientific concept on development and follow new industrialization path to achieve coordinated development between economy and population, resources and environment," said Tang. The two countries signed a memorandum of understanding on education and scientific research after the talks. Prescott arrived in Shanghai last Thursday, starting his weeklong China tour with issues on environmental protection and climate change on top agenda. Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao is expected to meet with Prescott today. (Xinhua News Agency April 24, 2007) |
