Carbon-Neutral Pathways for China: Economic Issues
Springer Verlag, Singapore
978-981-19-5564-8 (ISBN)
This book provides comprehensive economic analyses on the paths to net-zero for China. It gives a detailed overview of issues and challenges related to carbon neutrality of the global largest emitter which have not been adequately addressed e.g., reduction costs and efficiency of existing actions, the multiple impacts of the newly established carbon market, and the potentials and costs of nature-based solutions such as biophysical sequestration, etc. Studies on China’s carbon reduction have attracted scientists and policymakers from diverse backgrounds. Pursuing a holistic and systematic approach, the book establishes a fundamental framework for this topic, emphasizing the importance of integrated technical-economic-policy analysis. This book will not only be an essential reference to the carbon-neutral progress in China but also will be an outstanding text book on carbon-neutral management. Similarly, this book is expected to attract a great range of readership including undergraduate and postgraduate students, economic and climate specialists, researchers and policymakers in China as well as in overseas.
Dr. Kai Tang received a Ph.D. degree in Agricultural and Resource Economics from the University of Western Australia in Sept. 2016 and a Ph.D. degree in Natural Resources Management from China University of Geosciences in Dec. 2016. Since Oct. 2016, Dr. Tang has been in School of Economics and Trade, Guangdong University of Foreign Studies as a Professor. Dr. Tang is an Environmental and Resources Economist interested in tackling climate change, improving the quality of our environment, and enhancing the management of our natural resources. His research considers people's practices for environmental outcomes. Since 2016, Dr. Tang has published 30 peer-reviewed papers in international journals, including Agricultural Systems, Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resources Economics, Journal of Environmental Management, Land Use Policy, Energy, Applied Energy, Sustainable Development, etc., and two books. He is the Deputy Secretary-General of Green Finance Division, China Society ofNatural Resources and a Member of Standing Committee of Energy & Resource Systems Engineering Division, Systems Engineering Society of China. He also serves as a reviewer of more than 30 international journals, i.e., Nature Energy, Ecological Economics, Climate Policy, Agricultural Systems, Journal of Environmental Management, Energy, etc. He was a recipient of Australia’s International Postgraduate Research Scholarships (IPRS).
