Synergies and co-benefits of a clean energy transition in China. Nature Conference on Air Pollution and Climate Change - Beijing, China (May 23, 2024)
Climate change and air pollution are two important environmental challenges with great impacts on the planet and humans. Addressing one issue may have positive or negative effects on the other. The event aims to provide a platform for natural and social scientists as well as policymakers to discuss interactions of these two issues, benefits of tackling them, and actions for joint mitigation.

What are the opportunities to reduce emissions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases in China and other countries? Mauzerall will share recent research in her group on this topic, and examine the supply and demand sides of the residential, transport, power, industrial and agricultural sectors, and seek synergies between sectors to enhance reductions. Mauzerall and others quantify the co-benefits of these reductions for air quality, public health, greenhouse gas mitigation, and food security. This work seeks to inform decarbonization policy and involves rigorous technical analyses of mitigation strategies including energy, air pollution, health and economic modeling.
