China and Japan are paving the way for a greener future through enhanced collaboration in energy conservation and environmental protection. On Saturday, both nations announced their commitment to deepen cooperation in these critical industries during the 17th China-Japan Comprehensive Forum on Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection held in Tokyo.
The forum, a longstanding platform for international cooperation since 2006, brings together over 800 participants from both countries. This year, discussions focused on accelerating green, low-carbon development and strengthening environmental governance.
