Ministry of Transport and Beijing jointly launch energy conservation theme promotion

On June 21st, the "Green Transportation with the Bank" theme propaganda activities organized by the Ministry of Transport and the Beijing Municipal Government and organized by the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission was held at the Beijing Garden Expo Garden. He Jianzhong, Deputy Minister of Transport, and Zhang Gong, Deputy Mayor of Beijing attended the event.

The theme communication campaign of “Green Transportation with the Bank” was an important part of the National Energy Conservation Awareness Week (June 15-21) “Practicing Energy Saving and Low Carbon, Building a Beautiful Home” theme. The campaign aims to advocate the public to start from now and start from me, choose public transport systems, bicycles and walking and other green travel modes, and contribute to the construction of a resource-saving and environment-friendly society.

He Jianzhong stated that during the National Energy Conservation Publicity Week, the transportation industry actively responded to the State Council's call and organized a series of publicity activities to promote the development of green cycle low-carbon transportation. Recently, the Ministry of Transport has also issued the “Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Green Circulation and Low-Carbon Transportation”, proposing a model for promoting urban development based on public transportation, accelerating the construction of public transport infrastructure and enhancing the attractiveness of green travel. It is hoped that the general public, who are the participants in the traffic, will join hands with the transportation department to practice energy saving and low carbon and build a beautiful home.

The theme promotion activities also include volunteer rider advocacy and low-carbon bus card subscriptions. It is understood that Beijing, as a demonstration city for the construction of a public transport metropolitan city established by the Ministry of Transport and a pilot city for the construction of a low-carbon transportation system, has played an exemplary role in the development of public transportation and energy conservation and emission reduction in transportation. At present, Beijing's subway lines have reached more than 450 kilometers, 17 bus routes have reached more than 350 kilometers, and more than 20,000 bicycles have been leased publicly, and public transport has reached 44%.
