Universal countermeasures are needed to combat global warming. Only in this way can a socio-economically sustainable world economy be achieved. New Earth, which has been held five times so far since 1993 in three years intervals, provides timely technology and information for global solutions for enviromental issues. Coinciding with the first quantified emission limitation and reduction commitment period stipulated by the Kyoto Protocol, New Earth 2008 will focus on global warming. In order to alleviate the accelerating global warming, prevention and reduction of CO2 and greenhouse gasses is indispensable. New Earth 2008 will introduce the latest technologies and services in the fields of sustainable energy production such as biomass, photovoltaics, wind power and waste-generated electricity, along with ESCO projects that support energy saving, efficiency and energy reduction and the separation, collection and underground storage of CO2. The exhibition also addresses the policy of "re-use, reduce, recycle" by examining the entire issue of air quality, water quality, waste disposal, recycling and soil remediation.
