Opportunities for Near-Term U.S.-China Climate Action: Tackling the Aviation and Maritime Transportation Sectors

Transportation is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States, accounting for more than a quarter of annual emissions. In China, the sector accounts for nearly 10% of carbon dioxide emissions. Efforts to decarbonize the transportation sector are a key part of the climate strategies of both countries, with China leading on the deployment of electric vehicles. Meanwhile, some sub-sectors of transportation are notoriously difficult to decarbonize, including reducing emissions from flights, and from ships. What opportunities exist for the U.S. and China to help the difficult to abate aviation and marine sectors? Join us to hear from issue-experts on opportunities for the U.S. and China in the coming decade.
