内容介绍:
    China is the largest emitter of greenhouse gas and the largest pollution source in the world. Tracing China’s carbon emissions and the origin of pollutants in global value chains, we find that the Coal-based Energy Structure is the main reason causes the high carbon emission; meanwhile, we also find evidence of a positive co-relationship between coal consumption and pollutant emission such as SO2. 
China has been trying hard to change its energy structure through importing natural gas and developing renewal energy, and as last reached its coal peak in 2013. Recently China projects in its 13th 5-year plan to reduce the share of coal from the current level of 68% to 62%, increase renewal energy to 15% and reduce the main pollutant emissions by 10-15% by 2020, however, even though the plane is ambitious, there will be no fundamental change of the Coal-based Energy Structure in medium term and the high-carbon and high-pollution economy will be continued for decades. Our suggestion is to conduct a relatively radical energy reform by setting up a higher reduction target of coal consumption and levy an environmental tax. To guarantee the reform, the timetable of achieving carbon emissions peak should be ahead of schedule of 2030; In conclusion, China needs to combine climate change policy and environmental policy in order to realize a green, low-carbon development.
