Despite renewable energy surpassing fossil fuels as the world’s top power source, global warming reached 1.37°C in 2025. The IGCC report warns the 1.5°C carbon budget may be exhausted in 3 years. Industry and transport lag in decarbonization, posing grave risks to climate goals.
Rising fuel prices in Australia are accelerating a structural shift toward electric vehicles, with Chinese manufacturers like BYD and MG emerging as the primary beneficiaries. This trend reflects a broader market transformation where affordability and rapid technological advancements, such as ultra-fast charging, are reshaping consumer preferences.
The number of electric heavy-duty trucks in China has tripled over the past year, marking a critical turning point for the global energy transition. This rapid electrification of the world's largest logistics market is now posing a direct threat to long-term global diesel demand and oil refinery margins.
A historic global oil price shock is reshaping the automotive landscape, offering a critical reprieve for China's over-leveraged electric vehicle manufacturers. As fuel costs soar, the economic case for EVs has strengthened overnight, potentially accelerating China's dominance in the global energy transition.
Global leaders and environmental experts are emphasizing forest conservation as the primary defense against climate volatility and a cornerstone of economic resilience. New data suggests that protecting existing primary forests is significantly more cost-effective for carbon sequestration than large-scale reforestation efforts.
China's decision to scale back export subsidies for solar technology is set to drive up procurement costs across Africa, potentially stalling the continent's rapid energy transition. This regulatory shift forces African developers to navigate a higher-cost environment just as the region seeks to bridge massive energy access gaps.
China has successfully commenced power generation with its first domestically developed 550-megawatt F-class gas turbine unit. This milestone marks a significant leap in the nation's heavy industrial manufacturing capabilities and its strategy to modernize the power grid with high-efficiency thermal energy.
A widening conflict involving Iran has severely restricted liquefied natural gas (LNG) flows to Asian markets, forcing regional powers to ramp up coal consumption to ensure energy security. This shift threatens to derail regional decarbonization targets as utilities prioritize immediate grid stability over long-term climate commitments.
China's 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030) marks a historic shift from energy intensity targets to a total carbon emission control system. Under President Xi Jinping’s 'New Quality Productive Forces' vision, the plan accelerates the green transition while balancing energy security.
China's home appliance industry is undergoing a structural transformation as artificial intelligence and sustainable technologies replace traditional volume-based growth. A new industry report identifies these dual drivers as critical for revitalizing domestic demand and meeting national carbon neutrality targets.
Locksley Resources has successfully produced 99.5% purity antimony from its US-based operations, marking a critical step toward domesticating a supply chain for a metal essential to defense and renewable energy storage.
Despite an escalating conflict involving the U.S. and Israel that has effectively choked the Strait of Hormuz, Iran continues to ship millions of barrels of crude oil to China. This persistent energy corridor highlights the resilience of the Tehran-Beijing trade axis and the limitations of military blockades against shadow fleet operations.
Import-dependent Asian economies are grappling with severe fuel shortages and price hikes following US and Israeli strikes on Iran that have effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz. From rationing in Singapore to shortened work weeks in the Philippines, the region is bracing for a systemic industrial standstill as crude prices approach $100.
Donald Trump has asserted that the United States maintains a decisive lead in artificial intelligence, framing energy policy as the primary battlefield for technological supremacy. He specifically targeted the European Union's high energy costs and China's resource management as strategic vulnerabilities that the U.S. must exploit through expanded domestic production.
Despite 78% of Canadians demanding urgent climate action, the nation continues to struggle with rising emissions and a controversial expansion of fossil fuel infrastructure. As global markets like China and India pivot rapidly toward renewables, Canada faces mounting economic risks and the escalating costs of climate-driven disasters.
India and Brazil have signed a landmark agreement to cooperate on critical minerals and rare earths, aiming to build resilient supply chains independent of Chinese dominance. The deal, signed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, marks a deepening of Global South ties as both nations navigate shifting global trade dynamics.
This page surfaces every story mentioning China across our climate coverage. We track each entity's appearance over time so readers can trace how the narrative evolves — which developments are isolated incidents, which build into longer arcs, and which reframe how operators in the space think about the entity. Story selection uses the same multi-source verification gate applied across the rest of our coverage.
