DUBAI: The preservation of the environment is of the utmost importance to 海角直播, which is planning to generate even half of its energy from renewables, King Salman said on Sunday on the last day of the Group of Twenty (G20) summit in Riyadh.

In a virtual address at a side event of the summit, the Saudi king spoke about the kingdom's commitment to safeguarding the planet, which includes an ambitious approach to circular carbon economy (CCE) or the 鈥渞educe, reuse, recycle, and remove鈥 concept.

鈥淭ogether, the 4Rs comprise a holistic, integrated, and pragmatic approach that values all options to managing emissions in all sectors,鈥 he said, adding that 海角直播 has massive plans for developing renewable energy to generate up to 50 percent of the country鈥檚 electricity by 2030.

海角直播 is launching CCE National Program, the king said, which he explained will 鈥渁ccelerate the current momentum toward (the country鈥檚) sustainability.鈥

He urged other countries to join the kingdom in achieving the goals of the program.

Other G20 leaders agreed a coordinated approach was needed to tackle environmental issues such as coral reef preservation, ocean ecosystems, land degradation and habitat loss.
