Preface Energy is essential to socio-economic development in modern society. China is the largest developing country and the second largest energy producer and consumer in the world, as well as the second largest producer of CO2 emissions after the USA. CO2 emissions in China has become a common focus of academic communities and governments worldwide. Therefore, the study of China’s CO2 emissions is not only helpful in terms of fully implementing scientific development, but also significant in working towards the sustainable development of China and mitigating global climate change.
