Abstract

The 2 degrees temperature target or even 1.5 degrees temperature target set by the Paris Agreement has driven global climate change commitments and programs. This study simulates the specific pathway to global carbon neutrality under the 2 degrees temperature control target. The strategies for achieving carbon neutrality and temperature control goals in China are constructed by combining the emissions of different sectors in China. The key pathways to achieve carbon neutrality are to improve energy efficiency and electrification. In addition, the energy mix should be adjusted to reduce or even eliminate coal-based fossil fuels and increase the use of renewable energy. Efforts should also be made to increase carbon sinks and energy storage, and to control costs. At the same time, policies and laws will play a role in promoting the achievement of carbon neutrality. Ultimately, climate change mitigation and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions on a global scale can be achieved.
