The 2021 Macao International Environmental Co-operation Forum & Exhibition (2021MIECF) is scheduled to take place from 5 to 7 August 2021. Every year, the MIECF invites prominent figures in the international environmental sector to serve as keynote speakers. The 2021MIECF has invited Ms. Dong Mingzhu, Chairperson and President of Gree Electric Appliances, Inc. of Zhuhai and UN’s “Messenger of Sustainable Urban Development”, as the keynote speaker, who will deliver a keynote speech at the opening ceremony.

The 2021MIECF is hosted by the Government of the Macao Special Administrative Region, co-organised by the governments of the Pan-Pearl River Delta Region, and co-ordinated by the Macao Trade and Investment Promotion Institute and the Environmental Protection Bureau. The special supporting organisations include the National Development and Reform Commission of the People’s Republic of China, the Ministry of Science and Technology of the People’s Republic of China, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the People’s Republic of China and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment of the People’s Republic of China.

At the opening ceremony of the first day, Ms. Dong Mingzhu will deliver a keynote speech under the theme of “Transformation of the Manufacturing Industry under ‘Dual Carbon’ Goals” to discuss and share her opinions on the prospects for reinforced co-operation between the manufacturing industries of Zhuhai and Macao on the innovation of green technologies and the development of the green industry within their own closed-loop industrial chains of green research and development, manufacturing, consumption and recycling, against the backdrop of the two key national goals of “emission plateau” and “carbon neutrality”.
