Peak before 2030, neutrality before 2060. 2035 NDC: net GHG -7-10% from peak. Implemented via 15th FYP, ETS and sector plans.
Summary
The 1+N framework is China's top-level carbon policy: one guiding document plus sector and local plans. It sets a peak before 2030 and neutrality before 2060; the 2035 NDC adds a 7-10% cut in net GHG from peak. The 15th FYP and the ETS carry it forward.
