Description:

What advantages does regional coordination offer in relation to the goal of low-carbon development? How is it to be achieved and what  are its consequences for the prospects of long-term economic growth in China? These are just some of the questions the author attempts to answer in this timely book. Considerable space is given to discussions of the spillover and feedback effects of regionally-coordinated low carbon transformation of the economy. Part one reviews the relationship between economic development and carbon emissions in different regions, part two takes an in-depth look at the spillover and feedback effects, and part three presents an overarching analysis of carbon emissions in China and offers policy suggestions.
