　　In light of the overwhelming scientific consensus on climate change and its worsening impacts, and the related issue of air pollution from burning fossil fuels, China and the United States recognize the urgent need for action to meet these twin challenges. Both sides reaffirm their commitment to contribute significantly to successful 2015 global efforts to meet this challenge. Accordingly, China and the United States will work together, within the vehicle of the China-U.S. Climate Change Working Group (CCWG) launched last year, to collaborate through enhanced policy dialogue, including the sharing of information regarding their respective post-2020 plans to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Regarding practical cooperative actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other air pollutants, the two sides have reached agreement on the implementation plans on the five initiatives launched under the CCWG, including Emission Reductions from Heavy Duty and Other Vehicles, Smart Grids, Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage, Collecting and Managing Greenhouse Gas Emissions Data, and Energy Efficiency in Buildings and Industry, and commit to devote significant effort and resources to secure concrete results by the Sixth China-U.S. Strategic and Economic Dialogue in2014.
　　鑒于對于氣候變化及其日益惡化的影響已形成強有力的科學共識，以及與之相關的因化石燃料燃燒產生的空氣污染問題，中美兩國認識到急需采取行動應對上述雙重挑戰。雙方重申將致力于為2015年全球應對這一挑戰的成功努力做出重要貢獻。為此，中美兩國將利用去年成立的中美氣候變化工作組機制(簡稱“工作組”)，通過強化政策對話，包括交流各自2020年后控制溫室氣體排放計劃的有關信息，開展合作。關于減少溫室氣體和其他空氣污染物排放的務實合作行動，雙方已就工作組下啟動的五個合作領域實施計劃達成一致，包括載重汽車和其他汽車減排、智能電網、碳捕集利用和封存、溫室氣體數據的收集和管理、建筑和工業能效，并承諾投入相當精力和資源以確保在第六輪中美戰略與經濟對話前取得實質性成果。
