China is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases (GHG) and many major Chinese cities had severe air pollution through the 2010s, [82] with the situation improving in the 2020s. [83] The scheme is run by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, [80] which eventually plans to limit emissions from six of China's top carbon dioxide emitting ...

In 2016, the global average temperature was already 1.1°C above pre-industrial levels. [15] According to the review of the scientific literature conducted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), carbon dioxide is the most important anthropogenic greenhouse gas by warming contribution.

Despite improvements in China, air pollution across the globe continues to pose the greatest external risk to human health, with countries in Asia and Africa suffering most of the impact, new ...

Rapid industrialization, population growth, and lax environmental oversight have caused many environmental issues, such as large-scale pollution in China. [29] As of 2013, Beijing, which lies in a topographic bowl, has significant industry, and heats with coal, is subject to air inversions resulting in extremely high levels of pollution in ...
Air pollution caused by industrial plants (a factory at Yangtze River) Environmental issues in China had risen in tandem with the country's rapid industrialisation, as well as lax environmental oversight especially during the early 2000s. China was ranked 120th out of the 180 countries on the 2020 Environmental Performance Index. [1]
Emissions attributed to specific power stations around the world, color-coded by type of fuel used at the station. Lower half focuses on Europe and Asia [1]. This article is a list of locations and entities by greenhouse gas emissions, i.e. the greenhouse gas emissions from companies, activities, and countries on Earth which cause climate change.
