Trends in China's energy future will have considerable consequences for both China and the global environment. Though … China's carbon emissions are low on a per capita basis, China is already ranked the world's second largest producer of … carbon, behind only America. China's buildings sector currently accounts for 23% of China's total energy use and is projected …
