 =====Methods=====
+The research method involved analyzing current affairs, presentations at research group meetings, and existing literature on Asia's carbon emissions, climate change vulnerability, and decarbonization efforts. It also examined technological scenarios and national strategies towards achieving net zero emissions.\\

 =====Key Insights=====
+The report from the Japan Institute of International Affairs examines Asia's role as the largest emitter of greenhouse gases due to rapid economic growth and heavy reliance on fossil fuels, particularly coal. It highlights the varying carbon emissions across Asian countries, with China being the largest emitter. The report discusses the vulnerability of Asian countries to climate change impacts, such as typhoons, floods, and heatwaves. It identifies both positive drivers, such as international commitments to carbon neutrality, and negative drivers, like the continued reliance on coal, that influence Asia's pathway to net zero emissions. The report outlines two scenarios: a Lock-in Scenario, which involves incremental changes and continued use of fossil fuel infrastructure, and a Transition Scenario, which requires transformative changes towards carbon-free technologies. It also considers the role of energy conservation and national strategies towards zero carbon, taking into account energy security, economic factors, environmental benefits, and social implications. The report concludes that each Asian country must develop its own strategy towards net zero, considering its unique circumstances and resources.\\
