a Source contributions to CO2 emissions in China in 2017 based on the coordinated CO2 emission inventory with the air pollutants. The lower bar represents the contributions of different sectors, and the upper bar represents the contributions of different fuel/process categories. b Source contributions to premature deaths attributable to long-term ambient PM2.5 exposure in China in 2017 based on the Adjoint simulation of the Community Multiscale Air Quality modeling. The left bar represents the contributions of different sectors, and the right bar represents the contributions of different fuel/process categories. c Comparison of impacts on health damage and CO2 emissions for each subsector. The corresponding monetized impacts are also shown on the minor axis based on a uniform statistical life value (1.33 million US dollars per premature death) and social cost of carbon (100 US dollars per ton of CO2 emission). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
