China’s CO2 emissions have now been flat or falling for 18 months.
The rapid adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) saw CO2 emissions from transport fuel drop by 5% year-on-year, while there were also declines from cement and steel production.
While emissions from the power sector were flat year-on-year, a big rise in the chemical industry’s CO2 output offset reductions elsewhere.

Does anyone know if the China emissions numbers include garbage incineration? And if so, what the contribution of garbage burning is?
