The official doctrine of Chinese environmentalism today not only shapes China’s domestic policies, but has also become a powerful instrument of international diplomacy The maturation of China’s domestic environmental policies, programs and institutional capacity has contributed to the emergence of an “ideology” of global environmentalism that China has begun to deploy globally. This is an… Continue reading

Mexico announces new energy plan to reduce dependence on US natural gas On April 14, 2026 Mexico announced a New Energy Strategy aimed at enhancing the nation’s energy sovereignty by reducing its reliance on natural gas imports from the United States and by integrating a wider array of clean energy sources into the national grid, aligning Mexico… Continue reading

Chinese companies have accounted for more than half of global investments in clean energy manufacturing since 2019, while new U.S. investments declined last year. China has long led in the clean energy sector, what is new is that the U.S. is falling further behind. A new analysis underscores a growing divergence between China and the… Continue reading

Investment in clean energy globally in 2025 was $2.2 trillion, that is, over two times higher than investments in fossil fuels. Whether the transition is viable or not is no longer in question. What matters now is the speed at which the appropriate financing, policy framework and grid investment can be delivered. Installation data from recent years shows… Continue reading

China’s research vessel Tansuo-1, carrying the manned submersible Fendouzhe, has returned to South China’s Guangdong Province.

Energy production and ecological restoration are not competing in China. They are the same project. This is what makes the Chinese concept of ecological civilization genuinely significant. For most of modern history, the world operated on the conviction that if you want to develop your economy, you will damage the environment. The two move in opposite… Continue reading

China has launched a “super animal bridge” designed exclusively for wildlife. However, this work does not follow a conventional infrastructure logic. The structure is located in Qinzhou and crosses the Pinglu Canal, and therefore it is part of an ambitious hydraulic project that will transform the territory. Consequently, the design seeks to integrate into the natural environment without altering the behavior of the fauna. Thus, it is proposed as… Continue reading
