Guo Fang expressed gratitude to the China Three Gorges Group Shanghai Survey and Design Institute for its 35 years of deep cultivation in Hongkou and its important support for the economic and social development of the whole region. She stressed that achieving the "double carbon" goal has become a broad consensus of the whole society. It is our common responsibility and mission to promote the efficient use of resources and achieve green and low-carbon development. With the implementation of the "double carbon" strategy, Hongkou has the opportunity and foundation. With the implementation and operation of the National Carbon Emission Trading Market at the North Bund, the North Bund will take the lead in building a "double carbon" demonstration zone, promote the green and low-carbon cross-border deep cooperation with finance, shipping, industrial Internet and other fields, and continue to launch a number of demonstration parks and major projects. It is hoped that the "Shanghai Carbon" brand can be jointly established by strengthening the cooperation between central SOEs and local enterprises, the city-district cooperation and the government-enterprise cooperation. To promote the "double carbon" work, the government and the market need to work together. Hongkou will spare no effort to consolidate the foundation of cooperation, create an optimal business environment, and fully support the development of central SOEs in Hongkou with better services and better environment. We will cultivate fertile land for talent development, give full play to the advantages of Hongkou, which has a large number of big exchanges, famous universities, important institutes and technical personnel, deepen the talent policies such as "overseas returnee talent station" and "one card solution", to attract more professionals to come to Hongkou to find opportunities, display their talents and realize their value.
On the same day, the conference also released the results of the “Research on Approaches of Building "Double Carbon" Demonstration Area at the North Bund”. As the first area in Shanghai to propose to build a "double carbon" demonstration area, the North Bund will seek the "optimal solution" for green development under multiple objectives and constraints while building "Shanghai North Bund and Pujiang Golden Triangle". At the meeting, the Government of Hongkou District signed a strategic cooperation agreement with China Three Gorges Group Shanghai Survey and Design Institute, and the Development and Reform Commission of Hongkou District signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Shanghai Economic Information Center.
