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<div class=\"info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Working Paper<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">JUN 2026<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\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\">\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-07-at-12.58.09-PM-768x1084.jpg\" alt=\"Reducing Food Loss and Waste\">\n\t<\/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<li data-igdp-resource-type=\"event\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/events\/parallel-session-v-of-the-2026-methane-conference-methane-emission-reduction-in-the-waste-sector\/\" 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\">Parallel Session V of the \u201c2026 Methane Conference\u201d: Methane Emission Reduction in the Waste Sector<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc\">On May 27, iGDP took part in Parallel Session V: Methane Emission Reduction in the Waste Sector, at the 2026 Methane Conference, co-hosted by the Climate Investment and Finance Association (CIFA), CECEP Consulting Co., Ltd., and the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) Beijing Office.

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<div class=\"info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"span1\">Policy Brief<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"date\">NOV 2025<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\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\">\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-08-18-at-4.18.50-PM-768x1133.jpg\" alt=\"Agri-Food Super Pollutants Reduction in China: Accelerating a Green and Low-Carbon Transition to Unlock Co-benefits\">\n\t<\/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<li data-igdp-resource-type=\"policy-brief\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/insights\/mapping-chinas-agricultural-methane-reduction-trends-and-local-actions\/\" 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\">Mapping China&#8217;s Agricultural Methane Reduction<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"desc\">This policy brief analyzes agricultural methane emissions in China, which account for 41% of national methane emissions (primarily from livestock and rice cultivation). It quantifies the substantial mitigation potential\u2014up to 65 million tonnes CO\u2082e by 2060\u2014through measures such as improved irrigation, adoption of low-emission rice varieties, and anaerobic digestion of livestock manure. The analysis combines national-level emission analysis, county-level spatial mapping identifying five provinces that account for one-third of total agricultural methane emissions, a systematic review of provincial methane control action plans (nine provinces as of October 2025), and case studies of on-the-ground practices in Sichuan, Yunnan, and Jiangxi.
