 China faces a significant challenge in reaching its carbon neutrality target by 2060 due to its high levels of greenhouse gas emissions and short timeframe. Natural climate solutions such as protecting, managing and restoring ecosystems offer substantial potential for reducing emissions and offsetting fossil fuels. This study found that these solutions could reduce emissions by up to 1.65 gigatons of carbon dioxide equivalents per year on average from 2020 to 2060, which is more than double the current size of China's terrestrial carbon sink. Additionally, this study found that these solutions are cost-effective when compared to the global social cost of carbon and carbon pricing, and 98.6% of the solutions were cost-effective when compared to the global social cost of carbon. Furthermore, immediate action offers the most cost-effective mitigation potential. These findings suggest that natural climate solutions should be prioritized in order to achieve China's carbon neutrality goal within the specified time frame.
