摘要:9月3日在加拿大駐華使館舉辦的活動中,加拿大自然資源部部長格雷雷克福德強(qiáng)調(diào)了加拿大作為一個可靠和負(fù)責(zé)任的合作伙伴以及作為綠色建材、服務(wù)和技術(shù)供應(yīng)國的獨(dú)特之處。
“Canada is a leading and responsible supplier of green building material to China. In 2013, Canada’s trade relationship with China was worth more than $72 billion CAD (¥407billionYuan) —and wood products from Canada are an increasingly important part of that relationship. China’s import of Canadian wood products accounted for close to $1.9 billion CAD (¥10.7billion Yuan) —an increase of more than 1700 percent in just the past 10 years. “加拿大是中國首要的、負(fù)責(zé)任的綠色建筑材料供應(yīng)商。2013年,加中兩國之間的貿(mào)易價(jià)值超過了720億加元(合計(jì)4070億人民幣)——來自加拿大的木材產(chǎn)品在這貿(mào)易關(guān)系中占據(jù)越來越重要的位置。中國從加拿大進(jìn)口了價(jià)值近至19億加元(合計(jì)107億人民幣)的木材產(chǎn)品——這比10年前增長了17倍多。 的木材產(chǎn)品——這比10年前增長了17倍多?!癈anadian wood can play a significant part in meeting the demand brought about by China’s rapid urbanization. Wood-frame buildings are strong, solid, yet highly resistant to seismic shock. Wood also offers the scalability that can help China meet the demand for multi-family, multi-storey dwellings.” “加拿大的木材對于滿足由于快速城鎮(zhèn)化帶來的需求方面,發(fā)揮了顯著的作用。木結(jié)構(gòu)建筑非常結(jié)實(shí)、堅(jiān)固,同時具有很強(qiáng)的抗震性。木材同時還提供了可擴(kuò)展性,可以幫助中國滿足多家庭、多層住宅的需求。” Last year, Canada was the world’s largest supplier of softwood lumber and newsprint and the second largest supplier of pulp. Wood is the pride of many Canadians, not only in the form of standing timber but also in the structure of buildings and as finishing and decorative material, furniture and as a material of everyday objects. Canada is a resource-rich country and responsibly manages these resources: less than 0.2 % of Canada’s forests are harvested annually to meet the demand of the domestic and the international markets. 去年,加拿大是世界上最大的軟木木材和新聞紙的供應(yīng)商,并且是第二大紙漿供應(yīng)商。木材是許多加拿大人的驕傲,不僅包括活立木的形式,而且包括建筑物框架結(jié)構(gòu),修整和裝飾材料、家具以及日常用品的材料方面也讓加拿大人引以為豪。加拿大是一個資源豐富的國家,并且負(fù)責(zé)任地管理這些資源:每年加拿大僅砍伐采收不到0.2%的林木資源,來滿足國內(nèi)和國際市場的需求。 In addition to being green, safe, affordable and flexible, wood is a multi-purpose building material and a completely renewable resource. More importantly, wood-frame buildings make a significant contribution to reducing the carbon footprint of urban development and play an important part in our collective efforts to reduce harmful emissions. 除了綠色、安全、實(shí)惠、靈活外,木材是一種多用途的建筑材料和完全可再生的資源。更重要的是,它對減少城市發(fā)展過程中的碳足跡具有顯著效果,并且可以在我們降低有害氣體排放方面做出的共同努力中發(fā)揮重要的作用。 For over 20 years, Canada and China have been collaborating on research and development in the areas of greenhouse gases emission, renewable energy and environmental sustainability. These partnerships are helping China to meet its clean technology requirements, as Canadian technology and expertise complements Chinese production needs and demand for energy efficient buildings and the built environment, as well as energy technology and related machinery and services. 二十多年來,加拿大和中國一直在減排、可再生能源和環(huán)境的可持續(xù)發(fā)展等領(lǐng)域進(jìn)行著研發(fā)合作。加中伙伴關(guān)系可以幫助中國滿足對清潔技術(shù)解決方案的需求,因?yàn)榧幽么蟮募夹g(shù)和專業(yè)知識可以為中國企業(yè)生產(chǎn)過程中,在節(jié)能建筑和建筑環(huán)境方面、以及能源技術(shù)及相關(guān)設(shè)備和服務(wù)方面的需求提供補(bǔ)充。 |
