Xi Jinping announced China's new climate targets personally, a positive gesture, but the targets brought little clarity on China’s future emission pathway. Targeting a 7-10% emission reduction by 2035 from an undefined "peak level" undersells China's current clean energy boom.

China's clean power growth is stunning, but in relation to the size of the power market, China is not such a singular success story. 15 countries achieved a larger increase in clean power generation in the past five years than China, when measured as a share of their total power generation in 2019.

🚫 Since the EU’s ban on the transshipment of Russian liquefied natural gas (LNG) destined for non-EU countries took effect in March 2025, Russia’s total transshipped volumes have plunged by 46% year-over-year — a major blow, though not a total collapse, according to @creacleanair.bsky.social. 1/3
