Amplified positive environmental and energy effects under China' carbon neutrality

We analyze the amplified air quality, human health, and renewable energy self-reinforcing synergies of China’s carbon neutral target. Our results highlight that global developing and polluting countries’ quest for carbon neutrality can produce important positive feedbacks between aerosols mitigation, air quality improvement, and enhanced renewable energy, which can be amplified via weakened aerosol-meteorology interactions and better atmospheric dispersion.
