Webinar: "Practice and Impacts of Chinese Emission Trading Scheme"
3 August 2016; 9am- 10am US CDT
Description
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emission is an important cause of global warming. China, the largest carbon dioxide emitter, has made up its mind to “fight a war against pollution” in recent years. It vowed to reduce its emission intensity by 60-65% between 2005 and 2030. In order to achieve this goal, China launched seven regional emissions trading scheme (ETS) pilots in 2011 and promised to start a nationwide scheme in 2017. This presentation provides an overview and analysis of Chinese emissions trading scheme by focusing on the following questions:
--What is emission trading scheme?
--How is emission trading scheme going on in China?
--What is the impact of Chinese emission trading scheme?
