The analysis employs multiple classification frameworks\u2014economic-geographic regions, economic development stages (Pioneer, Leading, Catching-Up, and Developing Economies), national major regional strategies, and energy development positioning\u2014to identify structural divergences in transition patterns. It finds that scores improved across all provinces, with carbon productivity, energy, and power showing nationwide progress while transport, buildings, and industry remain key frontiers for deep decarbonization. The report also presents in-depth case studies of Guangdong, Jiangxi, Shanxi, and Hainan to examine differentiated transition pathways across economic development stages.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Report<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">JUN 2026<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"picbox\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pic\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1082\" src=\"https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.42.45-PM-768x1082.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.42.45-PM-768x1082.jpg 768w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.42.45-PM-213x300.jpg 213w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.42.45-PM-727x1024.jpg 727w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.42.45-PM-1090x1536.jpg 1090w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-1.42.45-PM.jpg 1124w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/insights\/reducing-food-loss-and-waste\/\" class=\"con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"txt\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tit\">Reducing Food Loss and Waste<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc\">This working paper quantitatively examines the scale and climate impact of food loss and waste (FLW) in China, estimating that 430 million tonnes of food were lost or wasted in 2024\u2014roughly 28% of total production\u2014generating approximately 500 million tonnes of CO\u2082e in carbon footprint and 185 million tonnes of CO\u2082e in methane emissions. It analyzes the uneven distribution of FLW across supply chain stages and food types, highlighting that while vegetables account for the largest share of losses, livestock products carry disproportionately high emissions intensity. The paper reviews China&#039;s evolving policy landscape, including the Anti-Food Waste Law and cold chain development initiatives, while identifying critical gaps in data infrastructure, sustainable cold chain coverage, and consumer behavior interventions. It explores the dual role of cold chain logistics\u2014reducing post-harvest losses while contributing significant energy-related and refrigerant emissions\u2014and assesses the potential of business innovations, public engagement, and food waste valorization to mitigate FLW. Ultimately, the paper advocates for integrating FLW reduction into climate governance frameworks, proposing four priority pathways: establishing systematic FLW data systems, advancing sustainable cold chain solutions, strengthening circular utilization of food waste, and promoting green consumption patterns to unlock a cost-effective, high-potential climate mitigation opportunity.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Working Paper<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">JUN 2026<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"picbox\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pic\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1084\" src=\"https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-12.58.09-PM-768x1084.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-12.58.09-PM-768x1084.jpg 768w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-12.58.09-PM-213x300.jpg 213w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-12.58.09-PM-725x1024.jpg 725w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-12.58.09-PM-1088x1536.jpg 1088w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-12.58.09-PM.jpg 1132w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/insights\/provincial-15th-five-year-plan-recommendations-dual-carbon-keywords\/\" class=\"con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"txt\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tit\">Provincial &#8220;15th Five-Year Plan&#8221; Recommendations: Dual-Carbon Keywords<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc\">This policy brief analyzes the green and low-carbon development content in provincial-level recommendations for China&#039;s 15th Five-Year Plan (2026\u20132030).

The analysis also synthesizes the multi-dimensional characteristics of park development\u2014energy, industry, transport, buildings, ecology, resource cycling, carbon management, and carbon sinks\u2014and discusses the implications of the July 2025 national policy that formalized zero-carbon park development at the central government level.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Working Paper<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">DEC 2025<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"picbox\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pic\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1077\" src=\"https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-8.10.17-PM-768x1077.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-8.10.17-PM-768x1077.jpg 768w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-8.10.17-PM-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-8.10.17-PM-730x1024.jpg 730w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-8.10.17-PM-1095x1536.jpg 1095w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-12-at-8.10.17-PM.jpg 1132w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/insights\/agri-food-and-super-pollutants-reduction-in-china-accelerating-a-green-and-low-carbon-transition-to-unlock-co-benefits\/\" class=\"con\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"txt\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tit\">Agri-Food Super Pollutants Reduction in China: Accelerating a Green and Low-Carbon Transition to Unlock Co-benefits<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc\">This policy brief analyzes reduction opportunities for &quot;super pollutants&quot; (methane, nitrous oxide, hydrofluorocarbons, black carbon, and ground-level ozone) from China&#039;s agri-food system. It focuses on three key areas: nitrogen fertilizer use and nitrous oxide emissions, food loss and waste and associated methane emissions, and rural energy use and black carbon emissions from cooking and agricultural machinery. It synthesizes scientific literature, official statistics, and policy documents to quantify emissions, identify mitigation potential, and catalog the climate, health, economic, and social co-benefits of action. It finds that super pollutant mitigation offers &quot;triple-win&quot; outcomes\u2014climate, health, and socioeconomic\u2014and identifies three emerging opportunities: supportive national and provincial policies, expanding green finance and carbon market mechanisms, and the growing role of new agricultural business entities in driving technology adoption at scale.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Policy Brief<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">NOV 2025<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"picbox\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"pic\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1133\" src=\"https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-18-at-4.18.50-PM-768x1133.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-18-at-4.18.50-PM-768x1133.jpg 768w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-18-at-4.18.50-PM-203x300.jpg 203w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-18-at-4.18.50-PM-694x1024.jpg 694w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-18-at-4.18.50-PM-1041x1536.jpg 1041w, https:\/\/igdptest.symbol365.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-18-at-4.18.50-PM.jpg 1090w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This report provides a comprehensive assessment of non-CO\u2082 greenhouse gas mitigation in China, covering methane, nitrous oxide, and fluorinated gases.
