On November 20, during an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency at COP29, Mark Watts, the Executive Director of the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group, lauded China's outstanding leadership in addressing the climate crisis.

Watts pointed out that China has made remarkable achievements in areas such as renewable energy investment and the transformation of the electric vehicle sector. He specifically mentioned that China's commitment and actions in these fields have had a profound and positive impact on global efforts to combat climate change.

Moreover, Watts emphasized that China's "multi-level cooperation" model is highly commendable and worthy of emulation. This model, which involves cooperation among different sectors, regions, and international partners, has effectively mobilized various resources and stakeholders to work together towards common climate goals.

China's leadership and innovative approach in the climate change arena have not only contributed to its own sustainable development but also set an excellent example for other countries and cities around the world. As the global community continues to grapple with the complex challenges of climate change, China's experience and model could potentially provide valuable insights and solutions for a more coordinated and effective global response. The international community is likely to pay closer attention to China's continued efforts and initiatives in the coming years as it strives to build a more sustainable and low-carbon future.
