Taken with a grain of salt, this seems to be most of the low-hanging fruit: https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3140808/chinese-cities-among-25-big-

  Can you clarify what you are indicating are the low-hanging fruit? Major cities around the world? Or particularly, Chinese cities?

  Doing what, though? Because: > “Another major reason is that many high-carbon production chains were outsourced from developed nations to Chinese cities, thus increasing the export-related emissions of the latter.” The solution possibly is something more radical than what you're thinking, because the PRC forcing emissions reductions and driving up manufacturing costs could just cause these industries to jump to the next exploitable developing region. I'm thinking more along the lines of strategies to reduce consumerism in general, or match global product prices to their "true" cost considering environmental damage - ideas most pro-infinite-growth capitalists find untenable.
