All climate mitigation actions have to be built upon quantification, monitoring, reporting and verification of carbon emissions. A newly launched database on carbon footprint of products in China aims to promote a participatory approach to support all kinds of organizations and businesses to assess the carbon footprint of products and services, as well as develop their carbon management strategies according to the assessments. However, the integrity of the database is far from sufficient. In this episode, Ang Zhao and Jiaqiao Lin introduce how the database was developed, how to use the data points to inform relevant policy discussions, and where the database may be improved.
