Energy, Environmental and Economic Sustainability in East Asia: Policies and Institutional Reforms: Routledge Studies in Sustainability

Editat de Soo-Cheol Lee, Hector Pollitt, Kiyoshi Fujikawa
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 aug 2019
This book looks at institutional reforms for the use of energy, water and resources toward a sustainable future in East Asia.
The book argues that developments in the East Asian region are critical to global sustainability and acknowledges that there is an increasing degree of mutual reliance among countries in East Asia – primarily China, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. It analyzes environmental impacts stemming from the use of energy, water and mineral resources via economic development in East Asia in the medium to long term (through 2050) through theoretical and empirical modelling. The book also evaluates the ripple effects of environmental and resource policies on each country’s economy and clarifies the direction of institutional reform in energy systems, resources and water use for a sustainable future.

Recenzii

"Four countries in East Asia, China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, are among top 20 in the world in their economic size, while three of them are top ten CO2 emitters. These facts imply that sustainable economic, environmental, and energy policies are not only critical for the region itself but for the sustainable future of the world. Using a well-designed empirical model called E3ME-FTT, the authors try to showcase the importance of understanding interconnectedness between economy and the environment especially in East Asia region. This book is a must read for scholars, students and policy makers who are interested in the sustainability issues in East Asia." —Jong Ho Hong, President, The East Asian Association of Environmental and Resource Economics, Professor and Dean, Graduate School of Environmental Studies, Seoul National University
"East Asia faces a range of environmental pressures, including climate change, air and water pollution, and water scarcity as it continues to develop its economies. What happens in East Asia is likely to determine future global sustainability. This book, the result of an intensive collaboration between Asian and European academics, uses advanced modelling techniques to explore desirable policy options across the region. It is strongly recommended for both researchers and policy makers with an interest in environmental and economic sustainability." — Akira Hibiki, President, Society for Environmental Economics and Policy Studies, Japan and Professor, Graduate School of Economics and Management, Tohoku University
"The book provides the most thorough and rigorous quantitative analysis to date of the long-term impacts of deep decarbonization policies on the environment and economy in East Asia. It shows that a comprehensive mix of policies can be effective at meeting the goal of decarbonization at the same time maintaining economic growth." — Daigee Shaw, Senior Research Fellow, Academia Sinica, Taiwan and Former President, The East Asia Association of Environmental and Resource Economics
"We are living in a dynamic changing planet and world. The future development and transition of East Asian regions imposes implications for the world. This book provides a very informative analysis and conclusions regarding the institutional and policy reform for the use of energy and resources responding the challenges both regionally and globally, to ensure the East Asian region effectively implementing sustainable development strategy. It is a wonderful book to inspire the academia, policy makers and students to think the transitions needed in this region."Shiqiu Zhang, Professor, Institute of Environment and Economy (IoEE) Peking University, China and Former President, The East Asian Association of Environmental and Resource Economics
