Chapter II

Article 8. Harmonization of meteorological authorities in the self-government area and coordination of climate resource detection.

Meteorological stations, which are owned by more than the Meteorological Authority, are responsible for the detection of climate resources. The meteorological stations affiliated with other relevant sectors are tasked with the detection of climate resources within their respective responsibilities.

The climate resource area should include the following:

(i) Background and relevance of regional programming;

(ii) The distribution of climate resources in the current administrative region;

(iii) Subregion indicators;

(iv) The protection focus and direction of climate resources;

(v) Subregion reviews the strengths of regional climate resource development and the development of potentials for use;

(vi) Responses and recommendations.

The development of climate resource areas should be based on national technical standards and norms.

Chapter III

Article 15. The Government of the people above the flag district should organize and implement climate resource development and protection planning in the present administration, in accordance with the climate resource area.

Climate resource development and protection planning should be consistent with national economic and social development planning and be aligned with urban and rural planning, environmental protection planning, water resource planning.

Article 16

Article 17 Governments and their relevant sectors should encourage and support the rich areas of resources, prioritize the development of wind resources, integrated planning and wind development projects and avoid duplication of construction, based on climate resource areas.

Urban planning and building should take advantage of the self-cleaning capability of atmospheric wind, rationalizing, adapting the pathways and avoiding and mitigating the lag of atmospheric pollutants.

Article 19 Governments of more than veterans and their relevant sectors should encourage and support the use of solar power, solar heating, heating and refrigeration, and solar water use technologies such as solar heating.

Article 20 should provide for solar use in the design and construction of buildings in accordance with relevant technical norms in national and autonomous areas. Business-service enterprises should facilitate the installation of solar use systems consistent with planning design requirements.

Article 21 Governments of more people at the flag district level should strengthen infrastructure, such as manual weather detection equipment, operating equipment and operational station points.

More than the meteorological authorities at the flag district level should organize, as appropriate, manpowering and integrated benefits for water resources development, based on drought, water storage, improved ecological environment and air quality, meteorological disaster defence.

Article 22 Governments and their relevant sectors should take advantage of the results of the crop pastoral climate resource area, adjust the agricultural pastoral sector and optimize the planting structure of crops and pastorals.

Article 23: The sectors such as the farming industry of more people at the flag district level should be integrated into agricultural pastoral projects, leading farmers and farming production organizations to build plantations, shatters, etc., and rationalizing the use of local heat resources.

Article 24 Governments of more people at the flag district level and their relevant sectors should strengthen awareness-raising in areas with the richness of tourist climate resources, such as ices, evasion of weather sites, and promote the development of the tourism industry.

Chapter IV

Article 25 Governments of more people at the flag district level should delineate the scope of climate resource protection in areas of climate resource enrichment or climate-sensitive areas. Projects that undermine climate resources should not be built within the context of climate resource protection.

Article 26 Governments of people at the flag district level should take ecological environmental protection measures such as energy emission reductions, greenization in rural and urban areas, to enhance the protection and rehabilitation of ecosystems such as forests, grassland, lakes, wetlands, and to optimize the climate resource environment.
