Views: 1572
China’s lead negotiator, for the upcoming United Nations climate negotiations,
. . . has suggested it would cost China over $6.6 trillion,
. . . to meet its own greenhouse gas reduction targets.

What’s most important is, that recent studies and evidence have shown,
. . . that China need not sacrifice economic development,
. . . to achieve their environmental targets.
A recent study released by the International Energy Agency highlights this fact,
. . . revealing that China’s emissions declined in 2014 for the first time since 1999,
. . . dropping by 1.5%, while the country was still growing economically.

“China can achieve:
. . . . . . Economic development,
. . . . . . Energy security, and
. . . . . . Reduce pollution at the same time,”
. . . said the authors of a new study conducted by Tsinghua University.
