美国解决全球气候变化政策解析

Perspectives on Addressing Global Climate Change Issues:Case of U.S.

介绍了美国目前限制和减少温室气体排放的方法和政策及其影响,并在分析温室气体排放和全球气候变化的科学数据的基础上,对现行政策进行评述并追踪美国在减少温室气体排放方面所做的努力及这些努力中潜在的可能具有的政策效力。

The purpose of this paper is to identify and compare the approaches to limiting and reducing GHG currently in place in China and US and discuss how GHG emission reduction might be impacted by the policies of the respective countries. After reviewing scientific data on GHG emissions and global climate change, we review current policies and strategies being pursued by US and China in the effort to reduce GHG emissions. We assess the potential effectiveness of these efforts.
