The eco-car becomes global hotspots
Automotive environmental issues since late last year after the global climate summit in Copenhagen, received national attention. In the global automotive industry, the first half of this year, new energy models, environmental models began to become very popular overseas, driven by national government policy support.
The first half of the United States announced a new automotive fuel economy standards, the provisions of the standard more stringent than the original standard: as 2016, U.S. car average mileage per gallon to 35.5 miles (about 6.6 liters / hundred km).
British government announced that to promote the popularization of new energy vehicles and encourage drivers to buy more environmentally friendly cars, will be hybrid and pure electric vehicles of dollars of subsidies from 3000-4000 increased to $ 7,500 range, and in 2011 will continue to adjust.
Spanish government grants 590 million euros, and plans to introduce a series of stimulus in 2011 and 2012 for 70,000 electric vehicle consumption. Under the subsidy policy, the Spanish consumers buy electric car, you can enjoy up to 6 thousands of euros in subsidies.
French government announced the beginning of the implementation of "National Plan for the development of electric vehicles," and this more than EUR 1.5 billion, mainly for the construction of charging stations. In this program, pure electric and hybrid cars become the focus on encouraging the object. June, the French government has launched a program aimed at low-interest loans to encourage the development of electric vehicles, total loans of 2.5 billion euros, specially issued to electric car manufacturers to finance construction and development of such enterprises to invest in new technologies such as batteries.

American judge the most environmental car brand
U.S. Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS (the Union of Concerned Scientists)) today announced the results of an evaluation of the results of 50 years, the most "green" comes as the Japanese car manufacturer Honda, closely followed by Toyota and South Korea Modern.
Concerned senior engineer Jim Hodges (Jim Kliesch) said: "After fierce rivalry Honda won the championship." Union of Concerned Scientists on the U.S. market's largest automobile manufacturing company for eight assessment, each company's vehicles have been smog and greenhouse emissions test.
Honda final score was 86 points higher than the data indicate that Honda, the other eight companies, the average level of 14%. Other data: 87 points, respectively, Toyota and Hyundai, Volkswagen scored 90 fourth, 93 points followed by Nissan, Ford, 108 points, General 109 points, Chrysler 113.
Jim Hodges added, they also selected the most polluting cars. Ford had previously been top-ranking, and now they rely on hybrid technology has been improved. Ford's future is looking at these scores to the sale of energy-saving models. So far, GM's hybrid technology to their greater use in improving the power, not energy-saving and environmental protection.

Low carbon economy promotes the machine tool industry development
Some developed countries to build the world's green environmental protection barriers, will increase the difficulty of access to international markets. Pollute the environment or energy-intensive products shut out, or heavily taxed sanctions. International Mould & Metal & Plastic Industry Suppliers Association official Luo Baihui that Chinese machine tool enterprises should be low-carbon manufacturing, green manufacturing development planning into the business, focusing on low-carbon economy, green manufacturing technology research and application, hold the future direction of economic development has been become the basis for the international market.
Machine tool industry should focus area of investment, in-depth understanding of user needs, increase research and development efforts for products. Products as soon as possible and eliminate backward production capacity, to avoid vicious competition. Should be a bold attempt to "specialized, sophisticated, special" product transfer. Some companies develop a high-speed railway track plate grinding machine to the "plane" development success story. This requires us to fill in the blanks there are many areas, such as: aircraft with a machine shop, aircraft riveting automatic drilling machine, special machine textile needles, prosthetic joints and other body parts needed health care field processing equipment. Currently these devices rely mainly on imports, have even banned in China. We only based on independent innovation, the development of import-substituting products to meet customer needs, to open new markets. Data show that since 2009, continued growth in imports of China's machine tool parts, indicating that domestic machine tool parts and components industry can not fully meet the requirements of the host. Parts and components market growth businesses should seize the opportunity to develop new products, speed up structural adjustment
