Beijing+30 Youth Blog: One woman’s journey to champion climate action and zero-waste living in China

Bayang (she/her) is an environmentalist from Qinghai Province, China. In 2021, she joined the "Sanjiangyuan Women Environmentalists Network" with support from UN Women China. In 2023, UN Women China and the Qinghai Rural Revitalization Bureau launched the "Women-Led Renewable Energy Transformation and Governance in Rural Communities" project, aiming to enhance women's access to and use of renewable energy to boost agricultural productivity, mitigate climate change, and promote women's leadership in the green transition.

China's resolve in clean energy and climate action and its commitment to the target of achieving carbon neutrality before 2060 present an immense opportunity to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment in the fight against climate change. Young women like Bayang are crucial contributors to sustainable solutions, driving forward climate action in China and globally.
