主 题: Climate mitigation policies in China – Are there provincial determinants?
内容简介: This paper contributes to the understanding of provincial climate mitigation policies in China and its aim is twofold. First an original index of climate regulation is calculated. It is devoted to the measurement of “revealed” efforts made by provinces aiming at downsizing GHGs emissions. This effort index is estimated by eliminating the impact of structural factors of CO2 emissions through a standardization equation. Second, an econometric analysis allows to a better understanding of the determinants of provincial climate policies. Policy implications are related to the need for more coordination between bottom-up and top-down policies to increase the efficiency of current practices. As the burden on provincial and national budgets may be very heavy, the choice of the level of implementation is a strong political constraint and need information on the provinces’ efforts.
