Conference Overview

LCES-2012 will continue to provide an alternative platform to other global conferences in related to climate change and environment protection. We will focus more on practical perspectives on green economy, promotion of sustainable or renewable energy, and exhibit technical resolutions to solve and predict the existing issues. Through the massive operations on comprehensive topics related low carbon economy and industries, we hope the summit can provide best information to exchange channels for all endeavors on low carbon fields who are working on controlling global climate changes from policy makers, NGO leaders, economists, investors, engineers, scientists, industrial leaders, carbon traders, brokers, clean emerge producers, energy consumers, toward daily low carbon life practitioners and advocators etc. Thus, LCES-2012 can provide help our society and humanity with unprecedented impacts on the world sustainable development, new economy growth and renewable energy innovation to commercialization.

Guangzhou is the third largest city in China and the largest city in south of China. It is also a significant hub of transportation and communication in China. Guangzhou, with a history of 2,200 years, regarded as the earliest among the international trade port cities in the world. As a trade port, Guangzhou, always with the name of the “southern gate of China” is also the starting point of the Silk Road on the sea which links China with the Arabian and western countries in trading. It plays an important role of foreign connector in China. It is the capital of Guangdong province, is also one of main industrial centers in China, covering an area of 7,434 square kilometers, and with a population of over 6 million. The city with long summer and no winter is always green with flowers in bloom all the year round, hence reputed as "Flower City". There are a great number of historical sites like Guangxiao Temple with a history of more than 1,000 years. And the scenery of White Clouds Mountain is also amazing. That is why it is the key tourist in our country.
