Using non-accidental mortality records from 195 sites and 11 model simulations from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6, we assessed future avoidable heat-related deaths associated with emission mitigation after accounting for population changes in China. Without human-induced climate change in the 21st century, China's heat-related mortality would drop by 48–72% (95% confidence interval (CI): 40–76%), especially at high latitudes and altitudes (up to 80%).
