This book seeks to model the possible emission trajectories and
identify the feasible mitigation schemes for China to meet its
climate commitments to peak emissions by 2030 and net zero
emissions by 2060. In line with these ambitions, China has taken a
number of measures to improve energy efficiency and energy
structure in recent years. The book first analyses changes in the
carbon footprint at the city level and identifies the different
pathways to peak emissions by province and industry to develop a
bottom-up approach to determining when and how China could reach
peak emissions. It then illustrates how the Emissions Trading
Scheme (ETS) reduces abatement costs and examines the cost-saving
effects under carbon intensity reduction and peak emissions
targets. Based on the findings and the status quo in China, the
authors propose a multi-criteria allocation scheme for carbon
emission allowances at the provincial level and quantify the impact
of sectoral coverage on the abatement costs of the ETS by
developing a cost-based approach to sectoral coverage in China. In
addition, the co-benefits between CO2 and PM2.5 reductions as a
result of the ETS operation are elaborated. The title will benefit
researchers and policy-makers interested in environmental
governance, climate policy, environmental economics and sustainable
development.
Annual Review of Nano Research, Volume 3 focuses mainly on
nanofabrication, nanomaterials and nanostructures, and energy
application of nanomaterials. All the review chapters are
contributed by well-published scientists and bring the most recent
advancement in selected topics to the readers. This review volume
will serve dual purposes: either as an excellent introduction to
scientists whose expertise lie in different fields but who are
interested in learning about nanotechnology, or as a quick
reference for experts active in the field of nanoscience and
nanotechnology.
