On December 12, in Hanoi, the Ministry of Science and Technology held the Announcement Ceremony and Scientific Workshop on "Science and Technology Research Program to Serve the Goal of Achieving Net Zero Emissions in Vietnam (KC.16/24-30)".
Accordingly, the Program will provide arguments, scientific and practical bases to propose the completion of mechanisms, policies, models and solutions to achieve the goal of achieving net zero emissions in Vietnam.
In particular, the Program will focus on researching, applying, decoding, innovating and transferring technologies and equipment to serve the implementation of green growth goals, circular economy, greenhouse gas emission reduction, low-carbon emission technology, carbon recovery, utilization and storage technology, cleaner, circular and environmentally friendly production technologies in industries and fields, technologies serving the work of warning, forecasting and inventorying greenhouse gases...
Speaking at the announcement ceremony, Minister of Science and Technology Huynh Thanh Dat said that, in line with the Prime Minister's direction, the Ministry of Science and Technology has coordinated with agencies, organizations, scientists and experts to urgently develop and issue the National Science and Technology Program with code KC.16/24-30, to serve the goal of achieving zero net emissions in Vietnam.
This program will go hand in hand with other national science and technology programs that have been and are being implemented to join hands in promoting science and technology solutions, especially towards green technology and greenhouse gas emission reduction technology, contributing to the implementation of Vietnam's commitment at the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Summit (COP26).
The NetZero Science and Technology Program will be the foundation and basis for creating breakthrough solutions in carbon capture and storage technology, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, aiming for a green economy, circular economy, enhancing and improving the quality of Vietnam's living environment; promoting technology development, innovation, creating jobs in the green technology industry, while enhancing competitiveness, promoting green growth and sustainable development in Vietnam.
The Minister hopes that the Program will be widely communicated to all business communities, research institutes, universities, experts and scientists across the country to work together to research, develop, decode and apply new technologies, green technologies, and technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in all industries and fields.
From there, join hands to research and propose mechanisms, policies, and standards to promote green transformation models, circular economy, and green growth, contributing to creating momentum for socio-economic development and proactively responding to increasingly complex climate change.
