WILL CHINA SAVE THE PLANET? - BARBARA FINAMORE ...

Now that Trump has turned the United States into a global climate outcast  will China take the
lead in saving our planet from environmental catastrophe? Many signs point to yes. China  the
world's largest carbon emitter  is leading a global clean energy revolution  phasing out coal
consumption and leading the development of a global system of green finance. But as leading
China environmental expert Barbara Finamore explains  it is anything but easy. The fundamental
economic and political challenges that China faces in addressing its domestic environmental
crisis threaten to derail its low-carbon energy transition. Yet there is reason for hope.
China's leaders understand that transforming the world's second largest economy from one
dependent on highly polluting heavy industry to one focused on clean energy  services and
innovation is essential  not only to the future of the planet  but to China's own prosperity.
