Beyond pledges: How China beats climate targets and builds resilient future
China is undergoing a monumental shift to meet its dual carbon goals, transforming its entire energy and industrial landscape. The country now boasts the world's largest carbon market and leads the globe in renewable capacity, having hit its 2030 NDC targets ahead of schedule. In this episode, Zhou Fang spoke with Wu Changhua, President of the Global Climate Academy and Chair of the Governing Council of the Asia Pacific Water Forum. They unpack the systemic drivers powering this transition—from the groundbreaking national carbon market that now spans several key industries to a unified green finance system mobilizing trillions. The conversation also goes to the frontlines of climate adaptation—covering China's nationwide push to fortify its coasts and cities against rising seas and heatwaves. Finally, they explore how strong governance and policy innovation are turning climate pledges into action, positioning China as a pivotal force in global climate efforts.
