Xiamen to build more wetland parks for low-carbon city construction

In order to promote the pilot program of building a low-carbon city, Xiamen has recently established a leading group to embark on the construction of a low-carbon city, including building more wetland parks in the city, according to a Strait News report.

Wetlands, along with forests and oceans serve as the three ecosystems in the world. Wetlands are also called the “Kidney of the Earth”, which can adjust climate, control pollution and maintain ecological balance.

The pilot program will mainly promote the low-carbon development of industries, urban construction, and transportation system, build up mechanism to reduce carbon dioxide and promote a low carbon life style and consuming habits.

Definite tasks and responsibilities will be distributed to different districts and relative departments later.
