The project is to prevent and control environmental pollution and degradation, to restore and improve environmental quality, to prevent decline and enhance biodiversity, to direct the establishment of nature reserves and biodiversity conservation areas, and to promote sustainable socio-economic development toward a green economy, a circular economy, and a low-carbon economy.
By 2030, protected nature reserves nationwide are expected to total approximately 6.7 million hectares.
By 2050, Vietnam aims to achieve good environmental quality, effectively conserve biodiversity, maintain ecological balance, actively respond to climate change, and advance toward sustainable development through a green transition based on the development of a circular economy, a green economy, and a low-carbon economy, with the goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
