8. This vulnerability is primarily attributed to the dual negative impact of air pollution, stemming from inefficient transportation modes, substandard heating systems, increased energy and fossil fuel consumption, as well as the
Employing a county-level dataset from 1999 to 2019 in China, we find that administrative decentralization significantly raises air pollution by about 2%. Our results further suggest that air pollution is mainly attributed to the increment of resource input and firm expansion. We find that ...

Since reforms carried out in the late 1970s, China has experienced unprecedented rates of urban growth. Remote sensing data and surface observational data are used to investigate the urbanization process and related environmental consequences, focusing on extreme heat events and air pollution, in Zhejia...
Urban air quality will continue to deteriorate and acidic depositions in Asia will increase. The health of China's cities and global emissions balances are closely related to China's energy emissions and the profile of energy development. 展开 ...
India is highly coal-reliant, and the worlds’ third highest emitter of GHGs after the US and China. In this episode of #Checks & Balances, Geetanjali Minhas of Governance Now spoke with climate experts to understand the causes of climate change, its impact, mitigation and adaptation. Y...
Indoor air quality (IAQ) affects the quality of life by increasing the risks for health problems and reduced work performance. Consequently, different societal costs are incurred. By reducing pollutants elevating exposures indoors, and improving IAQ, the
The consideration of tariffs on China’s imports of US agricultural products has focused on economic impacts, while the environmental consequences have received less attention. Here we use a global computable general equilibrium model to evaluate long-te
