This book explores China’s low-carbon consumption in the context of residential behavior, corporate practices and policy implication. It first calculates the carbon and ecological footprints of residential consumption, including both direct and indirect emissions, before discussing Chinese residential behavioral aspects and determinants of electricity saving, low-carbon transportation, low-carbon product purchasing, and e-waste recycling. The authors then investigate the relationship between industrial growth and carbon emissions, using the example of the iron and steel industry to examine the motivation for energy intensive industries to reduce carbon emissions. They also consider energy efficiency and inter-company collaboration on carbon emission reduction. Lastly, the book describes the major low-carbon policies in China and their impact, economic cost and public acceptance. 《Low-Carbon Consumption in China: Residential Behavior, Corporate Practices and Policy Implication》從居民、企業(yè)和政府政策三個(gè)層面,全景式探討了低碳消費(fèi)在中國(guó)的發(fā)展實(shí)踐。首先,《Low-Carbon Consumption in China: Residential Behavior, Corporate Practices and Policy Implication》針對(duì)中國(guó)居民在日常節(jié)能、低碳交通、低碳產(chǎn)品購(gòu)買與電子廢棄物回收利用方面的行為,計(jì)算了居民直接消費(fèi)和間接消費(fèi)的碳足跡和生態(tài)足跡。然后《Low-Carbon Consumption in China: Residential Behavior, Corporate Practices and Policy Implication》研究了工業(yè)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)和碳排放的關(guān)系,以鋼鐵產(chǎn)業(yè)為例探討了能源密集型產(chǎn)業(yè)參與碳減排的動(dòng)機(jī),并將企業(yè)間協(xié)同合作納入碳減排分析。*后,《Low-Carbon Consumption in China: Residential Behavior, Corporate Practices and Policy Implication》梳理了中國(guó)主要的低碳減排政策,并分析了典型政策的經(jīng)濟(jì)成本和社會(huì)效益。
