China’s 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 China’s 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. | China’s Climate-Energy Policy Domestic and International Impacts
