Climate change is a huge challenge to humanity in the 21th century.
In view of China's recent pledge to the international community to
peak carbon emissions before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by
2060, this book examines climate mitigation and adaptation efforts
in China through the prism of the steel sector, and it does so from
three interrelated perspectives, i.e., policy, technology, and
market. The book argues that in developing the country's strategy
towards green growth, over the years there has been a positive and
interactive relationship between China's international commitments
and domestic agenda setting in mitigation and adaptation to the
impact of climate change. To illustrate China's efforts, two
special areas, i.e., carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS)
and emissions-trading system (ETS), have received focused
examination. Along the spectrum of low-carbon, zero-carbon, and
negative-carbon strategies, this study ends with a simulation model
which outlines different policy scenarios, challenges, and
uncertainties, as China moves further on, trying to achieve carbon
neutrality in 2060. The book will be of interest to scholars,
policy-makers, and business executives who want to understand
China's growing role in the world.
