Abstract

China’s green transformation and development cannot be plain sailing; the resistance in the process is also obvious. From the perspective of the present and the future, the obstacles to China’s green transformation and development are mainly reflected in four aspects: First, it is the lag of the concept of development, especially the one-sided understanding of development. Second, it is the incompatibility between national governance system and green development. Third, the national governance mechanism is incompatible with green development. Fourth, there is a lack of basic capacity for green development, especially in scientific and technological support and infrastructure. These aspects can be attributed to the resistance of the development concept, the resistance of the governance system, the resistance of the governance mechanism and the lack of basic capacity. We must attach great importance to these obstacles and focus on changing development concepts, reforming governance systems, innovating governance mechanisms and strengthening capacity building to remove them and ensure the smooth progress of green transformation and development.
