Editor's Note:
As the world turned its eyes to climate amid the COP30 in Belém, Brazil, from November 10 to 21, China released a white paper titled Carbon Peaking and Carbon Neutrality: China's Plans and Solutions.
The document has resonated widely across the international community, offering a comprehensive look at China's efforts to tackle climate change and fulfill its environmental commitments. For many, particularly in the West, it is a rare glimpse at the scale and sincerity of China's climate actions over the past five years.
To highlight these efforts and amplify global voices on the issue, the Global Times has produced this special infographic edition. Through clear visuals and data-driven narratives, this edition showcases the country's progress in reducing carbon emissions and promoting green development, while reflecting how the world is responding to China's role in global climate governance.
