Improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emis- sions by making energy-saving upgrades, building green data centers, and promoting paperless work, digital office, and low-car- bon investment. Climate change mitigation: Fully identify the climate change risks and opportunities on the product side,...
On one hand, the Bank further reduced and exempted service fees on basis of the existing policy; on the other hand, it enlarged the application scope of LPR and drove the changes in policy interest rates to flow to the real economy, in an active bid to reduce enterprises' financing costs...
The environment: China's quest for cleaner energy has moved beyond ambitious plans for nuclear generation to a desire to pursue new sources such as wind, solar, biomass, coal-bed methane, and shale gas. As well, China's commitment to reduce carbon emissions has triggered a wave of activity...
The law makes conservation one of its top priorities.54 While it indicates that state funds will be allotted for conservation, the primary goals are to reduce con- sumption through taxation and pricing mechanisms as well as provide incentives for clean energy. Prices are to be set by both ...

In August 2013, the State Council announced that China would reduce its carbon emissions by 40–45% by 2020 from 2005 levels, and would aim to boost non-fossil energy to 15% of its total primary energy consumption by 2020 [2]. In March 2014, China declared a "war on pollution" and ...
Additionally, the NDVIC index, making use of its better resistance of short-wave infrared band to atmospheric condition changes, can unify different coverage types and reduce the influence of forest background signals [50,51]. These indices were derived by following the formula in Table 4. ...
Quantitatively mapping forest aboveground biomass (AGB) is of great significance for the study of terrestrial carbon storage and global carbon cycles, and remote sensing-based data are a valuable source of estimating forest AGB. In this study, we evaluated the potential of machine learning algorithms...
Therefore, encouraging an extended family lifestyle and family structure of four generations together is a policy path to reduce carbon emissions in Guangdong Province. China should focus on the following aspects: First, it should encourage real estate enterprises to favor large house types and large...
Intentions to reduce carbon emissions have been signalled by most countries. The USA used 2005 emissions levels as a benchmark and set a greenhouse gas reduction target of 17% by 2020, while the European Union has committed to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 20% of the level in 1990...
