This volume provides information on how China views the challenge of climate change and seeks to rectify the extraordinary confusion found in the West on China's green energy future and its larger perspectives on this extraordinarily crucial topic. Contributors in this volume provide a bigger picture of international negotiations on climate change; discuss China's national actions on green energy and sustainability and how national policies are implemented at the local level; and examine challenges and potential of developing green energy resources in China.
