Overview
This grant aims to work with existing policy frameworks in China to help align China’s new climate announcements with its existing social and economic reform agenda. EDF will promote a faster, lower, and more robust emission reduction pathway that can potentially avoid 28 billion tons of CO2 by 2035 in China. It will help build a foundation of technical knowledge, shared understanding, and leadership so that China can be on track for faster and lower level of emissions peaking by 2025.
