Abstract: The idea of industrial ecology has been introduced to China for almost three decades. It plays an increasingly important role in the country’s pursuit of green transition. Parallel to its practical importance is the blossom of Chinese scholarship. While it is not feasible to present the full picture and contribution of Chinese industrial ecologists, this session provides a glance of key pioneers, praises their important legacy, and envisions future contributions.
