National Strategies for Addressing Climate Change Via Methane Emissions
摘要
Abstract
Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas with the global warming potential 72 times greater than that of CO2 over a horizon of 20 years, though it remains in the atmosphere for a much shorter period. Stabilizing methane emissions as a potential policy target can dramatically contribute to greenhouse gas reduction in the near-term. Methane emission in China is remarkably important, which plays an important role in the making of national strategies for addressing climate change. In contrast with the ever-increasing focus for China's CO2 emission, policy research on CH4 emission receives relatively little attention. This study represents the first comprehensive effort to assess China's national strategies for addressing climate change by considering CH4 emission systematically based on the recent research progress. The main conclusions are as follows: methane emission control and reduction could become an essential part of GHG emission mitigation in China; systems mitigation strategies rather than direct end mitigation strategies should be effectively designed; to systemieally reduce CH4 emissions, we have to pay equal attention to the direct emission of production on site in the sectors of coal mining and dressing and agriculture, and to the embodied emission induced by the final demand in terms of construction activities, urban consumption, capital investment and export trade. Corresponding concrete policies for emission mitigation are addressed. Integrating China's methane emission can also contribute to establishing China's standpoints in the global climate negotiatior. Five national standpoints, such as 'commitment to achieving GHG emissions per GDP reduction instead of single CO2 emissions per GDP reduction' , are recommended and elucidated in detail to suit the CH4 emission situation in China.关键词
