Almost a fifth (19.5%) of electric vehicles sold in Europe in 2023 were made in China and this is on track to reach a quarter (25%) in 2024, according to new analysis by NGO the European Federation for Transport and Environment (T&E).The forecast comes as the EU is considering a range of environmental tariffs on Chinese imports, including on China’s EV industry. Chinese imports into Europe have largely been Tesla, […]
‘Historic breakthrough’: China’s installed wind turbine cost drops to one-fifth of the US in green energy race The Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post has reported that: Commenting on this, China’s World notes, “In the real world, beyond the bluster, China is already the leader in the green-energy ‘race’. This will only move it further ahead. Such breakthroughs will, as usual, be shared with all non-supremacist nations that believe in […]
Extreme heat and ozone pollution: Chinese scientists call for targeted control strategies Elevated surface ozone concentrations in China are posing a significant threat to both human health and crop yields. Extreme heat can greatly exacerbate ozone pollution through both complex chemical and physical processes. For example, extreme heat is often accompanied by stagnant weather conditions, which can lead to the accumulation and subsequent elevation of ozone. Considering that extreme heat events have […]
