To address climate change,the world needs deep decarbonization to achieve carbon neutrality(CN),which im-plies net-zero human-caused CO2 emissions in the atmosphere.This study used emission-side drivers,includ-ing socioeconomic and net primary productivity(NPP)-based factors,to determine the changes in CN based on vegetation carbon sequestration in the case of China during 2001-2015.Spatial exploratory analysis as well as the combined use of production-theoretical decomposition analysis(PDA)and an econometric model were also utilized.We showed that CN was significantly spatially correlated over the study period;Yunnan,Hei-longjiang,and Jilin presented positive spatial autocorrelations,whereas Guizhou showed a negative spatial au-tocorrelation.More than half of CN declined over the period during which potential energy intensity(PEIE)and energy usage technological change were the largest negative and positive drivers for increasing CN.PEIE played a significantly negative role in increasing CN.We advise policymakers to focus more on emission-side drivers(e.g.,energy intensity)in addition to strengthening NPP management to achieve CN.
