Insights丨Scott Vaughan: China reshapes global development through green transition

At the 2025 Summer Davos in Tianjin, Scott Vaughan, former President and CEO of the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) and International Chief Advisor to the China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development (CCICED), said in an exclusive interview with China News Network that China's green transition is not just about deploying solar power at unprecedented scale. It is also about leading with green finance, green bonds, and blue economy financing.

He emphasized that China does not treat economic growth and ecological protection as a trade-off, but instead creates jobs and welfare through the green transition—rewriting the global narrative of industrialization through solid action. (Chen Tianhao, Lin Mengnan)
