#7 Is PM Suga’s “Carbon Neutrality” by 2050 ambitious or just unrealistic?

Last month, Prime Minister Suga announced the Japan’s target to go carbon neutral by 2050. Two months prior, in September Chinese President Xi Jinping announced that China would reduce its CO2 emissions by 2030 and aim for carbon neutrality by 2060.

So, getting 10 years ahead, is Prime Minister Suga’s political ambition to achieve carbon neutrality before China does in line with Japan's reality?
