Biodiversity and environmental pollution are sustainable challenges facing the world today, among which carbon emissions from the construction and building materials industry account for one-third of the country's total carbon emissions. 2020, China clearly put forward the goals of "carbon peaking" by 2030 and "carbon neutrality" by 2060. "Over the past three years, China has steadily pushed forward the green and low-carbon transformation of energy, continued to promote the optimization and upgrading of industrial structure, and synergistically pushed forward the reduction of carbon, the reduction of pollution, the expansion of green and growth. The well-being of mankind depends on the sustainable development of the environment. In the face of the "post-crisis" era, each of us is obliged to be aware of the impact of our carbon footprint on the environment and society, and to take up our social responsibility in an innovative way.

DP LAB (Dongpeng Innovation Lab) advocates environmental sustainability and cultural sustainability as its mission, and through forward-looking and innovative discussions and experiments, it creates solutions for user scenarios such as low-carbon/aesthetics/humanities/sustainable development.

In 2023, Dongpeng Holdings join the United Nations Global Compact, contributing China's strength to the realization of global sustainable business goals.
