China has released a comprehensive five-year plan dedicated to addressing climate change, with targets for the 2026-2030 period including building a Beautiful China, developing a new-type energy system, and achieving carbon neutrality before 2060. The plan covers topics such as CO2 emissions, non-CO2 greenhouse gases, carbon markets, and international cooperation on climate change, supporting China's Paris Agreement pledges for 2030 and 2035. Efforts to strengthen climate governance include cutting carbon intensity, reducing non-CO2 greenhouse gas emissions, and implementing measures like coal-mine methane utilization projects and end-of-pipe destruction technologies for HFCs. China aims to increase its influence in global climate governance by 2030, with a focus on controlling SF6 emissions and leading in global carbon pricing and offset buying through partnerships with the EU and Brazil.
