From transforming farmland back into forests to adopting clean energy sources and establishing a "carbon credit bank," Lingshan Island in the eastern Chinese city of Qingdao has launched an all-out war against carbon emissions.

These efforts have yielded remarkable results, positioning the island located in the West Coast New Area of Qingdao as China's first carbon-negative sea island, thereby, demonstrating the country's commitment to environmental sustainability.

China has set ambitious goals of achieving carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060, taking a prominent role in the global fight against climate change.
