About the map
The goal of the Chinese Government Map for National Energy and Environmental Policy is to diagram the organizational relationship between all Chinese government and government-affiliated institutions with influence over national energy and environmental policy.

The map was created by David Vance Wagner, with valuable input from Robert Earley, Jason Lee, Charles McElwee, Jeremy Schreifels, Julian Wong, and many more.
