Climate change has led to an increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, coupled with the accelerated depletion of energy and resources due to human activities, resulting in serious impacts on the Earth's environment and ecological resources. In response to this, the Environmental Protection Administration of the Executive Yuan has proposed specific goals and timelines for the "low-carbon community," "low-carbon city," and "low-carbon living circle." Additionally, they have outlined a plan to construct a "low-carbon home" with six concrete and executable action items.
The Environmental Protection Bureau of the Chiayi City Government is driving the "Low-Carbon Sustainable Home Construction Promotion Program." Through the implementation of climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts, the bureau aims to promote and advocate for energy-saving and carbon reduction practices in people's daily lives, envisioning the city as a low-carbon and sustainable home. The main objectives and outcomes of the "2024 Chiayi City Low-Carbon Sustainable Home Implementation Plan" are detailed as follows:
1. Promoting activities related to low-carbon sustainable homes:
To encourage the participation of neighborhoods in low-carbon sustainable community initiatives and to expand the effectiveness of low-carbon actions in Chiayi City, this project will conduct demonstration activities for low-carbon sustainable communities in neighborhoods (communities) and among the general public. It will collaborate with neighborhoods that have achieved silver-level certification, guiding them to organize demonstration activities. The plan will also assist villages with bronze-level or higher certifications in continuing their efforts and support five neighborhoods in implementing new low-carbon sustainable initiatives. Additionally, it will aid four neighborhoods in participating in the certification process for low-carbon sustainable communities.
2. Promoting context-specific low-carbon actions:
To encourage schools to actively respond to energy conservation and carbon reduction goals and move towards the city's target of zero-carbon campuses, the project will implement the "Chiayi City Low-Carbon Campus Certification Implementation Program." This includes guiding schools in promoting water resource recycling to achieve the goal of resource circulation and reuse.
3. Assisting in the promotion of solar photovoltaic power systems:
Targeting neighborhoods and communities in Chiayi City, this project will organize seminars on solar photovoltaic power generation systems. It will also conduct cross-county observation events for solar photovoltaic systems, visiting nearby communities and environmental education facilities with notable solar projects. The goal is to actively engage residents and communities in responding to the energy transition policy, thereby increasing the city's share of renewable energy.
4. Other Cooperative Measures:
Through press releases and Facebook posts, the project aims to promote the implementation of low-carbon actions in the daily lives of the public. It also encourages continuous participation in domestic activities related to low-carbon sustainability to publicize the city's achievements in energy conservation, carbon reduction, and zero-net emissions.
