Reduction in Chinese CO2 Emissions
Emissions of CO2 from China are expected to reduce by 0.3% for 2025.
Before you get too excited, emissions from China are still over 12 billion tonnes per annum.
This is a small step in the right direction although to make a positive difference, emissions need to be zero.
Many countries have claimed CO2 emissions reductions while Chinese manufacturing has largely replaced the industrial sectors in those countries. Emissions from shipping have been ignored as an inconvenient truth. The USA, in particular, is now starting to take manufacturing back. Emissions from countries other than China could well rise to reflect that change, resulting in an overall increase in emissions.

Global CO2 emissions are projected to be 38.1 billion tonnes for 2025.
