China is the world's leading emitter of heat-trapping gases by a wide margin. There is no solution to climate change without China. In his Guide to Chinese Climate Policy, David Sandalow examines China's emissions, explores the impacts of climate change in China, provides a short history of China's climate policies and discusses China's principal climate policies today. This up-to-date Guide is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in China, climate change or both. "This comprehensive guide by a leading authority on the climate change policies of China, the world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases, is the most up-to-date reference available, and belongs on the desks and bookshelves of researchers and practitioners alike." -- Robert Stavins, A. J. Meyer Professor of Energy and Economic Development, John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University "David Sandalow's extraordinary energy and environmental expertise coupled with his rich governmental experience at the Department of Energy, State Department and National Security Council are reflected in his Guide to Chinese Climate Policy 2019. His fact-packed analysis of China's climate policies, both good and bad, and how they compare with other nations' policy efforts, is invaluable. Professor Sandalow's excellent study is extremely timely and deserves a high level of attention." -- Amb. Carla Hills, Chair, National Committee on US-China Relations and former US Trade Representative "This is an excellent, readable, practical discussion of climate policy in a country whose climate policy is an indispensable ingredient to combatting climate change. David Sandalow is the perfect guide, deeply knowledgeable about China and practiced in the hands-on business of climate and energy diplomacy." -- Todd Stern, Senior Fellow, Brookings Institution and former US Special Climate Envoy "In the global effort to protect the climate, no country matters more than China. David Sandalow has written the definitive guide to Chinese actions--both at home and abroad. Impressive in scope and depth, Sandalow's study puts a spotlight on many important signs of progress along with some challenges that are deeply worrying." - David Victor, Professor of International Relations, University of California at San Diego and Co-Chair, Brookings Initiative on Energy and Climate Change "The energy transformation going on in China is critical to whether the world succeeds or fails in solving the climate crisis and that is why David Sandalow's important, authoritative and timely Guide to that transformation is so welcome." -- John Podesta, Founder and Director, Center for American Progress "David Sandalow's Guide to Chinese Climate Policies 2019 succeeds in achieving a seemingly impossible goal - to provide a concise, clear, and objective explication and evaluation of China's wide-ranging, multifaceted policies to address climate change. This deeply researched volume is a truly outstanding resource for anyone interested in this vitally important topic." -- Kenneth Lieberthal, Professor Emeritus, University of Michigan "David Sandalow's Guide to Chinese Climate Policy provides a comprehensive and insightful overview of both the positive and not-so-positive recent developments in China as it balances economic growth and development with climate change mitigation goals." - Nan Zhou, Head, International Energy Analysis Department, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory

China is becoming a rising star in global economical and political affairs. Both internationally and within China itself, people have great expectations of its future role. This book aims to clarify many aspects of China’s key position in the climate change situation and policy debates. However, limited by its development stage, natural resource endowment, and other unbalanced developing issues, China is still a developing country. This book shows the reader the real China, which can provide more comprehensive solutions for future global climate regimes. This book includes research into China’s twelfth Five-Year-Plan; low-carbon city pilot schemes; policies and pathways for China’s nationally appropriate mitigation actions; China’s forestry management; China’s NGOs and climate change; the low-carbon 2010 Expo in Shanghai; carbon budget proposals; China’s green economy and green jobs; China’s reaction to carbon tariffs; China’s actions in approaching adaptation; China’s cumulative carbon emissions, and more. China’s Climate Change Policies brings together experienced experts with in-depth understanding of the scientific assessment of climate change and relevant social and economic policies, and senior experts who have participated directly in international climate negotiations. This will help the reader to better understand the 2011 Durban climate change conference, as well as China’s long-term strategy in response to climate change.

Drawing on first hand interview data with experts and government officials, Olivia Gippner develops a new analytical framework to explore the vested interests and policy debates surrounding Chinese climate policy-making. Scrutinising the ''turf wars'' that have erupted between bureaucratic institutions competing for resources, promotions and access, this innovative book unpacks the histories and trajectories of Chinese climate policies, placing them in the context of the international politics of climate change. Gippner's new framework is deployed in detailed case studies based on the 2°C target, emissions trading and carbon capture and storage to illustrate the timing and scale of climate policy adoption. This book will appeal to researchers exploring the creation and establishment of Chinese policy and the influence from other countries, in particular the EU's climate policy promotion. Environmental politics and climate policy researchers looking to expand their research field will also benefit from this book's unique framework of analysis. Policymakers and the growing think tank community in this field will value details from first-hand interviews with Chinese government officials and climate change negotiators.

Global climate change is one of the challenges ever to confront humanity with the largest scale, widest scope and most far-reaching influence. As the biggest developing country with the largest population, China is the world’s leading consumer of coal and energy, and one of the worst-hit victims of global warming. Consequently, China should assume its responsibility in making contributions to global sustainable development. Based on the principles of fairness and efficiency, this study creatively puts forward two principles of global governance on climate change. The first entails replacement of the two-group schema of developed and developing countries with a four-group model based on the Human Development Index (HDI). The second entails application of the resulting model to specify the major emitters as principal contributors to emission reduction. In addition, it proposes a two-step strategy for China to tackle the issue of climate change. This book makes it clear that China should proactively engage in relevant international cooperation, actively participate in international climate negotiations, make clear commitments to reduce emissions, and assume the obligations of a responsible power to achieve sustainable and green development.

The Language of Climate Politics offers readers new ways to talk about the climate crisis that will help get fossil fuels out of our economy and save our planet. It's an analysis of the current discourse of American climate politics, but also a critical history of the terms that most directly influence the way not just conservatives but centrists on both sides of the political divide think and talk about climate change. In showing how those terms lead to mistaken beliefs about climate change and its solutions, the book equips readers with a new vocabulary that will enable them to neutralize climate propaganda and fight more effectively for a livable future.

The COVID-19 crisis has proven that sustainability of an institution or organization requires a constant review of one’s strategic positioning and the execution of pertinent plans in response to evolving externalities. Resilient organizations continue to revive themselves through effective R&D and the renewal of their range of products and services. Financial and Technological Innovation for Sustainability: Environmental, Social and Governance Performance examines approaches to sustainability under the ongoing development of energy sustainability and the green finance initiatives. It unveils global heterogeneous efforts in achieving Environmental Social Governance (ESG) performance in light of climate change, global sustainability and concerns over corporate “greenwashing”. The book assembles a wealth of case studies from a variety of contemporary organizations that actively pursue sustainable development while seeking their next economic growth. These global cases demonstrate the salience of governance that institutes continuous advancements to enable the timely revitalization of corporate strategies, technological innovation and deployment of financial resources for sustainability transformation regardless of their stages of lifecycle. They reveal distinct approaches to financial and technological innovation in Africa, Asia, Europe and North America in pursuing the shared UN Sustainable Development Goals. The intertwined public-private partnership and implications of geopolitics under an evolving global financial system for sustainability transformation are articulated. This book will appeal to academics as well as business and finance professionals, who are keen to understand the interrelationship between financial and technological innovation, and to those who want to comprehend the underlying global challenges and opportunities of adopting emerging technologies to reinvent a business model that forges measurable and impactful ESG performances.

This book explores strategies for limiting transnational market failures, governance failures and constitutional failures impeding protection of the universally agreed sustainable development goals like climate change mitigation and access to justice and transnational rule-of-law. Can multilevel democratic and judicial protection of fundamental rights and public goods across frontiers be extended through plurilateral agreements? Can transnational economic and environmental constitutionalism be reconciled with ‘constitutional pluralism’ and with democratic constitutionalism depending on individual and democratic consent of free and equal citizens? Will judicial challenges (e.g. of EU carbon border adjustment measures) and countermeasures lead to further disruption of UN and WTO law? "This innovative book provides convincing analyses by leading practitioners and academics of multilevel governance of transnational public goods. It advocates the need for stronger involvement of civil society and democratic institutions. It shows why constitutionalism and constitutional economics offer appropriate methodologies for limiting market failures, government failures and constitutional failures. It thereby offers a glimpse of much needed optimism." Karl-Ernst Brauner, former Deputy Director-General of the World Trade Organization (WTO)

Now that Trump has turned the United States into a global climate outcast, will China take the lead in saving our planet from environmental catastrophe? Many signs point to yes. China, the world's largest carbon emitter, is leading a global clean energy revolution, phasing out coal consumption and leading the development of a global system of green finance. But as leading China environmental expert Barbara Finamore explains, it is anything but easy. The fundamental economic and political challenges that China faces in addressing its domestic environmental crisis threaten to derail its low-carbon energy transition. Yet there is reason for hope. China's leaders understand that transforming the world's second largest economy from one dependent on highly polluting heavy industry to one focused on clean energy, services and innovation is essential, not only to the future of the planet, but to China's own prosperity.
