Cao Xuejun, the first level inspector of the Consumer Products Industry Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, addressed the conference. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China stressed that high-quality development is the primary task of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, and promoting green and low-carbon economic and social development is the key link to achieve high-quality development. This is a major judgment based on the strategic deployment of accelerating the green transformation of the development mode and the essential requirements of building a Chinese style modernization in which people and nature coexist harmoniously, which provides a fundamental basis for achieving high-quality development and consolidating the dominant position of the textile industry in the green transformation.

She said that green development is an inevitable choice for high-quality development of the textile industry, an important measure to consolidate the leading position of competitive industries, and is becoming a new engine and driving force for the development of the industry. For the future green development of the industry, she put forward four suggestions: first, strengthen top-level design to promote green and low-carbon transformation of textile; Second, strengthen collaborative innovation and promote the application of green and low-carbon textile technology; Third, accelerate structural optimization to form a green low-carbon production and lifestyle; Fourth, improve standard certification and build a green transformation service system.

Duan Xiaoping, Vice President of China Textile Industry Federation, said in his speech that 2022 is a challenging year for the textile industry. Under the background of multiple pressures, cost reduction and efficiency increase have become an important means to stabilize the economic development of the industry. The implementation of cost reduction and efficiency increase in the field of green low-carbon cycle is not only a general trend, but also an initiative with both economic benefits, environmental benefits and social benefits. It can not only tap the potential of resources and energy to meet the demand for consumption growth, leaving the expansion space for the industry to maintain sustainable economic development, but also improve the green competitiveness of the industry, and boost the confidence of the industry to stabilize growth and promote development.

He stressed that the construction of ecological civilization is a millennium plan to achieve the sustainable development of the Chinese nation. Accelerating the green transformation and upgrading of traditional industries and promoting the synergy of water conservation, pollution reduction and carbon reduction are the only way to achieve high-quality industrial development, and also the key to implementing and fulfilling the carbon neutral commitment of carbon peaking. In order to build a modern textile industrial system with green and low-carbon circular development, the first thing is to focus on strengthening the chain and ensuring the industrial system is independent and controllable; Second, we should continue to transform and upgrade, and take the road of high-end, intelligent and green development; Third, we should adhere to the human text, and reflect responsibility and value in development. In addition, it is also necessary to release the innovative and creative vitality of the vast number of employees, and increase talent reserves and training efforts. Only by giving full play to the role of people can we gradually build a scientific and technological support system for green development, and promote the industry to build a development pattern in which the beauty of production, life and ecology is integrated and symbiotic, and the value is shared.

Hua Shan, Director of the Industry Department of the China Textile Industry Federation, delivered a keynote speech titled "Development Situation and Outlook of the Textile Industry". She pointed out that with the changes in the external situation and the expansion of the industry's own scale, China's textile industry has entered the development cycle of slowing down the growth of the total volume and in-depth adjustment and transformation. At the same time, the industrial structure has been steadily optimized, the production and export scale has been growing, and the global market share has remained high. At present, under the influence of multiple factors, such as slowing economic growth and intensifying geopolitical crisis, the international export situation is under great pressure. Domestic consumption demand is not strong, and the growth of domestic sales of textiles and clothing both online and offline has slowed down.

She systematically summarized the achievements of green transformation and upgrading of the textile industry in recent years. The whole industry has made great progress in green fiber materials, high-end textile equipment, green technology and other aspects through measures such as green supply and consumption improvement, continuous optimization of energy consumption structure, and sound development of industrial layout, and has initially established an industrial green manufacturing innovation system, The industry is transforming and upgrading towards the new orientation of "science, technology, fashion and green". She stressed that in the future, China Textile Federation will continue to promote the optimization and improvement of energy consumption from six aspects of innovation, benchmarking, technical innovation, coordination, open source and management, strictly carry out pollution prevention, strengthen resource conservation and comprehensive utilization, comprehensively build a green manufacturing system, guide green production and lifestyle, steadily improve green development, and achieve achievement sharing and development.

Yan Yan, Director of the Social Responsibility Office of the China Textile Industry Federation, issued a report on the progress and prospect of climate innovation in China's textile and clothing industry 》The topic was shared. She said that promoting carbon peak and carbon neutrality is a common choice for the global response to the climate crisis. In order to implement the emission reduction commitments, the world's major economies are accelerating to improve the basic system and policy system of green development. At present, developed countries are formulating or implementing trade rules with green and low-carbon as the core, promoting green to become the core foundation of the world value system. China's textile and clothing industry is facing multiple changes and challenges in green rules, green consumption, and green capital.

She pointed out that the pioneering action of China's textile industry has been deepened by promoting the realization of carbon peak and carbon neutrality. Among them, the "30 · 60 China Fashion Brand Carbon Neutralization Acceleration Plan" has achieved remarkable results. Under the background of "dual carbon", enterprises should pay attention to industrial energy conservation and carbon reduction, build a green low-carbon supply chain, and develop a circular economy, especially to build a unified green product certification and identification system, establish a full life cycle traceability mechanism for key products, and promote the low-carbon development of the whole supply chain.

Experts from the Energy Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Macroeconomics shared the topic of Energy and Economic Transformation to Achieve Carbon Neutrality. He said that carbon neutrality is no longer a matter of greenhouse gas emission reduction, but a matter of technological and economic competition. Taking the near zero emission path of transportation and buildings as an example, he pointed out that in the future, the economy and industrial layout may follow the cheap renewable energy and nuclear power. At present, the policy framework for achieving carbon neutrality is gradually established. The textile and clothing industry and enterprises should take the "double carbon" goal as the guide, accelerate the construction of a green low-carbon circular industrial system, and accelerate transformation and upgrading to seize the commanding heights and embark on the path of sustainable development.

Li Boyang, director of the Consumer Products Industry Research Institute of CCID Research Institute, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, shared the topic of New Requirements and Countermeasures for High Quality Green Development of Consumer Products Industry. At present, the green and low-carbon development of industry shows four major trends, from relative emission reduction to absolute emission reduction, from high carbon economy to low carbon economy, from "energy conservation and emission reduction" to "pollution reduction and carbon reduction cooperation", and from "dual control" of energy consumption to "dual control" of carbon emissions. In view of the green and low-carbon development of the textile industry, he suggested that enterprises should make forward-looking research on the development strategy of decarbonization of consumer goods industry; Actively build the supply and utilization system of new energy resources; Take green manufacturing as the starting point to accelerate the establishment of green and low-carbon industrial system; Break through the key technologies of applying green and low-carbon development; Establish and improve the management service system combining government guidance and market mechanism.

Cheng Xuan, Deputy Director of the Industry Department of the China Textile Industry Federation and Director of the Office of the Environmental Protection and Assets Supervision Commission, introduced the green development service platform ("FAIS system") of the textile industry. He said that the FAIS system is a service platform for green transformation and upgrading of the textile industry launched by the Environmental Protection and Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the China Textile Industry Federation under the guidance of the China Textile Industry Federation and with the support of the World Wide Fund for Nature. It aims to gather resources and forces from all sides, and integrate energy saving diagnosis, water efficiency assessment, product LCA green assessment, plant/park green assessment, water footprint The carbon footprint is integrated to achieve co creation, co construction and sharing.

At present, green low-carbon is becoming the new threshold for global market entry and the hot spot of trade barriers. As the world's largest textile producer, China has accelerated the implementation of the concept of green development, increased the promotion and application of green energy saving and emission reduction technologies, formed a green low-carbon production mode, and provided more green consumer products. These are important measures to enter the middle and high end of the industrial value chain, form new advantages in international trade, and improve the core competitiveness of the industry. Accelerating the green and low-carbon transformation has become the only way for the sustainable development of the textile industry.
