dialogue.earth/en/justice/t... We teamed up with Suzhou University and over 100 Shanxi young student volunteers, and interviewed over 9000 people in the world's largest coal producer province. This is what they say about China's coal use and the province's transition. Just is the key. #ShanxiCoal

To keep coal workers on side, China’s energy transition must be inclusive
Those who stand to lose out from the transition need to be involved in decision making, write two professors of communication

What provinces in China like Shanxi need is a #JETB a Just Energy Transition Brotherhood. China won't be able to achieve its Dual Carbon Targets without stronger coordination to mobilize support from richer cleaner provinces to poorer coal depending provinces.
