In recent years, the greenhouse effect has already had great impact on the climatic change and the environment of the world. Solutions in accordance to such climatic change presented internationally are mainly divided into two ways: mitigation and adaptation (IPCC, 2007). Moreover, in addition to continuing the reduction of the artificial greenhouse gas emission, we start thinking about how to adjust the existing ways of life and social functioning, and facing radical meteorological events due to global warming and the climatic change. Therefore, how to adjust the impact due to climatic change is imperative and should be the first course to deal with. Also, we should put more attention on the adaption to climatic change, which is the top priority for our goal. However, it needs every one of us to work on the issue of adaption concerning reducing the emissions of carbon and greenhouse gas, which in the end would help diminishing the crisis of environmental destruction and creating a healthy and sustainable new Taiwan.
This project focuses on how to arouse people’s consciousness of reduction of carbon emissions increase their awareness about climatic adaptation in order to make the job of climatic adaptation and reduction of carbon more creative and related to our lives. This project will be mainly in organizing a series of innovative carbon reduction activities to arouse the attention of the public on this issue, focusing on the public awareness of energy conservation, carbon reduction and climatic adaption in order to implement its universal importance into our daily life with an influence rooted deeply in mind. At the same time, government departments, enterprises and civil society are established to carry out the cooperation mechanism of carbon reduction education and promotion; with "EcoLife Taiwan network" to encourage and offer guidance concerning launch of voluntary carbon reduction action; through the carbon reduction action plan to give out certification mark to domestic enterprises and civil society in order to increase their participation and sense of honor on the issue, taking the lead furthermore in carbon reduction action and climatic adaptation of community, providing EPA and the public reference for carbon reduction action in practice.
The implementation activities in this year include Earth Day and World Environment Day, energy-related series of creative activities such as low-carbon food creation, creative comic block contest on energy and carbon reduction and 30-second video and creative slogan competition. Significantly, we have an outstanding result on promoting the idea of carbon reduction. Moreover, a total of about 70 communities and other units applied voluntarily this year for certification marks of carbon emissions reduction, of which 44 got approvals and were given with the certification marks after assessment, which indicates that the public pays more attention on and has more sense of identity on the issue of carbon reduction.
