At the climate crossroads

The global energy transition is mired in a debate of false choices: economy vs environment. CGTN's special investigation, "At the Climate Crossroads," cuts through this rhetoric with a ground-level report on the pragmatic, hybrid path being forged.

We journey to front lines like China's Ningxia desert, where solar and coal power work in tandem within a smart grid, proving reliability and green goals can align. We investigate the technology at the Enping 15-1 platform, where CO2 is captured and used for profit, turning emissions reduction into an economic driver.

Furthermore, we look into the global power shift. As the U.S. retreats from climate leadership, this in-depth report, "At the Climate Crossroads," documents how China is filling the void through South-South cooperation, providing developing nations with technology and means.
