Sommario/riassunto: China's carbon dioxide emissions now outstrip those of other countries and its domestic air quality is severely degraded, especially in urban areas. Its sheer size and its growing, fossil-fuel-powered economy mean that China's economic and environmental policy choices will have an outsized effect on the global environmental future. This book offers an integrated analysis of China's economy, emissions, air quality, public health, and agriculture.
