In March 2021, Carbonstop released this comparative research report that calculates GHG emissions of two types of shopping in China, with support from Energy Foundation China.
It compares emissions from e-commerce and brick-and-mortar businesses, in aspects of transport, buildings, information, and extra packages, with detailed case studies.
The data the report compiles can be used by policymakers and stakeholders including enterprises, NGOs, and research institutions for future studies. It can also be used by consumers to choose lower carbon consumption, and by companies that strive to decarbonize their businesses.
