2022北京CBD国际商务季“聚焦绿色建筑，打造绿色低碳商务区”线上分论坛日前成功举办。此次论坛由北京CBD管委会主办，奥雅纳承办，聚焦全球化背景下的商务区绿色发展模式。
中国建筑节能协会副会长李德英、北京CBD管委会常务副主任牛海龙和奥雅纳东亚区主席郭家耀分别致开场词。
论坛邀请中国建筑科学研究院、清华大学、北京市城市规划设计研究院、安永会计师事务所、戴德梁行等国内外机构专家、学者与企业代表，分享绿建低碳实践经验。
论坛上，北京CBD管委会发起《绿色低碳行动倡议》，倡导全体楼宇、招商机构、企事业单位，积极参与绿色低碳建筑创建行动，主动开展绿色电力交易和碳交易，发展和完善绿色低碳企业配套服务，支持和配合节能降碳交流平台搭建，培养引进绿色低碳人才，以全新发展理念引领城市可持续发展。
针对北京CBD绿色建设与发展，北京市城市规划设计研究院城市更新规划所所长王崇烈提出CBD六大发展策略：优化用地功能混合布局，构建全时空的中央的活力区；依托轨道站点聚集资源，引导城市高密度高效率发展；完善道路微循环促慢行，绿色出行引导生产生活；多样公共空间激发活力，多维绿色空间提升碳汇；更新利用活化既有建筑，高效运营城市存量空间；推广绿色建筑有效节能，全生命周期低碳运营与维护。
清华大学节建筑节能研究中心副教授魏庆芃表示，CBD需要通过价值管理重塑商业新常态，将可持续发展标准纳入社区园区和基础设施投资和发展策略，让基础设施和设备设施的运行更加低碳、绿色、健康和宜居。
北京达实德润副总经理朱文敏建议，北京CBD在现有良好的基础上，需推动零碳建筑示范项目的发展和突破，加强零碳技术的应用和推广，将绿色低碳实践推广到区域内更多业态中。
谈及绿色金融对我国实现碳中和的助力作用，中国国际经济咨询有限公司发展战略研究院副院长祖大军表示，强有力的绿色金融对策可助力我国尽早实现双碳任务。目前我国绿色债券用于绿色建筑领域尚不足。随着国家对地产建筑领域的政策支持，绿色债券值得大家关注。
奥雅纳院士、地产科技园区及社会基础设施业务全球负责人Paul Sloman，城市土地学会华盛顿特区可持续性发展和经济绩效中心执行董事Billy Grayson就全球CBD实现净零碳排放发展策略分享时表示，城市CBD脱碳需要城市管理者、公共和企业机构的共同努力，持续提高能源效率，投资可再生能源，不断创新和优化减碳措施。
金丝雀码头集团分享了他们如何与上下游供应链、承包商及合作伙伴联动，探索出一系列的减碳方案。
圆桌对话环节中，来自戴德梁行、中国建筑科学研究院、奥雅纳、安永、北京五一视界及北京建机天润资产管理有限公司的嘉宾们主要就建筑规范的绿色可持续发展方向、城市低碳规划与管理、数字科技碳中和、绿色地产开发、楼宇绿色认证及更新改造等话题展开了探讨。
据了解，目前，北京CBD区域现有楼宇均按绿色建筑评价或LEED认证的高标准进行建设或运营，CBD中心区及金盏国际合作服务区LEED金级及以上绿色建筑认证累计32个项目超过458万平米，CBD中心区绿建认证楼宇总体量占全市近四分之一。伴随绿色低碳全球化发展，北京CBD将着力推动CBD建筑领域绿色低碳转型，为北京实现碳达峰贡献力量。(完)
中新网评：美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾******
中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后，美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕，众议院共和党领袖凯文•麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录，将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。
资料图：美国众议院共和党领袖麦卡锡。中新社记者 沙晗汀 摄由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素，众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中，美国民主党议员继续抱团，多轮投票中，一票不投麦卡锡，共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。
麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折，除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外，与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。
一方面，共和党党内反对者认为，麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱，无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府，另一方面，因为共和党的多数优势微弱，党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大，有利于他们巩固自己的选票。
此外，党内反对者也认为，自己的选票没有换取更多利益，希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步，比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。
作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物，众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任，选举几乎没有悬念。然而，麦卡锡此次为当选，不得不做出多个关键让步，其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制，使得众议长的权力被削弱，难以掌控众议院。
美国有线电视新闻网CNN称，麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步，这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。
这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下，党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上，美国两党相互拆台，陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内，也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系，相互对抗，选票变成了谋利益的工具。
从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举，“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈，长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力，其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。
两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病，美国所谓的“民主”形象，让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举，变成了政客们利益置换的游戏，进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能，不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。
House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy
(ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy".
The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader.
Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party.
On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration.
On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses.
Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees.
As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives.
But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker.
CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful.
This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally.
Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits.
From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public.
Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world.
The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.
