The Driving Force of Green Transformation and Development

Abstract

In the process of green transformation and development, China is facing many serious pressures and has many powerful driving forces. From the perspective of the central government, the impetus for promoting green development is mainly reflected in three aspects: First, promoting green development is an inevitable requirement for improving the governance capacity and level of the country. A government that cannot even solve the problems of domestic resources, environment and ecology is not one with high governance capacity and level. Second, promoting green development is the inherent requirement for improving the national image and establishing the status of a responsible major country. Third, promoting green development is an inevitable requirement for improving the country’s comprehensive competitiveness. Competition in the field of resources, environment and ecology is also an important content. In the eyes of local governments, green transformation and development are also the inevitable requirements of enhancing regional competitiveness, improving regional living environment and investment environment, establishing the image of serving the people and resisting environmental mass incidents in the new era. At the same time, enterprises are also motivated to participate in green transformation and development. Green development contains huge business opportunities, enterprises fulfill their social responsibilities and enterprises successfully “go global”. From this perspective, green transformation and development is a process jointly promoted by multiple parties and a process of constant release of power.
