Research on the Whole Process Management Mechanism of Mangrove Carbon Sink Trading in Zhanjiang, Guangdong Province under the Background of Carbon Neutrality

Abstract

Zhanjiang Mangrove National Nature Reserve is the largest and most diverse mangrove reserve in China. Mangroves have a strong carbon sequestration capacity, and the study of the whole process management mechanism of carbon sink trading in Zhanjiang mangroves is a positive response to the dual carbon strategy proposed by General Secretary Xi Jinping. This paper first analyses the current situation of mangrove protection in Zhanjiang, based on which it proposes the trading principles and organisational structure of the mangrove carbon sink market, and finally proposes three major management mechanisms: accounting, regulation and safeguard mechanisms. Zhanjiang should make full use of the blue carbon economy contained in the mangrove forests to seek the path of green development and ecological development, and contribute to the achievement of the national goal of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality.
