Chinas Climate-Energy Policy: Domestic and International Impacts by Akihisa Mori

Description: Chinas Climate-Energy Policy by Akihisa Mori This book examines the economic, social and ecological costs associated with Chinas energy policy. Analysing the increase in carbon emissions, it assesses how these costs are domestically and internationally allocated. It presents studies on specific policies in China and on its resource exporting countries, such as Indonesia and Australia. FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Chinas recent climate-energy policy, an outcome of contemporary challenges, has generated conflict of interest amongst major stakeholders. Coupled with a boost in demand for oil, gas and coal, as well as a rapid growth in wind and solar power, it has not only affected domestic fossil fuel and renewable energy providers, but has also provoked a resource boom, affecting development pathways internationally. This book therefore seeks to examine the economic, social and ecological effects associated with Chinas climate-energy policy. Assessing how the policy has been and will be formulated and implemented, it analyses the changing use of energy, CO2 emissions and GDP, as well as social and environmental impacts both domestically and internationally. It presents in-depth case studies on specific policies in China and on its resource exporting countries, such as Indonesia, Australia, Myanmar and Mongolia. At the same time, using quantitative data, it provides detailed input-output and applied computable general equilibrium analyses. Arguing that China has actively advanced its climate-energy policy to become a leader of global climate governance, it demonstrates that China ultimately relocates the cost of its climate-energy policy to resource exporting countries.This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of energy, the environment and sustainability, as well as Chinese Studies and economics.
