Whilst a plethora of literature has viewed technological progress as one of the critical
influencing factors in relation to energy consumption and CO 2 emissions, little effort has …

One of the greatest constraints currently affecting China's economic development is climate
change, with its associated restrictive conditions. Consequently, the application of …

Anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O)
have made significant contributions to global warming since the pre-industrial period and …

The growing carbon crisis threatens sustainable development. This paper verifies that the
rise of green finance contributes to overcoming this challenge. The benchmark results show …

For climate change mitigation, China launched seven pilot areas before establishing a
unified carbon emission trading system in 2014. This study explores the “weak” version of …

Residential contribution to air pollution–associated health impacts is critical, but
inadequately addressed because of data gaps. Here, we fully model the effects of residential …

The combustion of fossil fuels produces emissions of the long-lived greenhouse gas carbon
dioxide and of short-lived pollutants, including sulfur dioxide, that contribute to the formation …

The potential of mitigation actions to limit global warming within 2° C (ref.) might rely on the
abundant supply of biomass for large-scale bioenergy with carbon capture and storage …

Revealing the decoupling process between global economy and its carbon emissions is a
key breakthrough point to seek the pathways of global low-carbon economic development …

Grasslands absorb and release carbon dioxide (CO2), emit methane (CH4) from grazing
livestock, and emit nitrous oxide (N2O) from soils. Little is known about how the fluxes of …
