The worlds most populous nation is undergoing a vast transformation that will redefine the global economy. Chinese industrial production has increased tremendously in recent years, and its consumption of resources has necessarily gone way up as well. These developments will have important impacts on economics, business, politics, and environmental conditions throughout the world. In C hinas Dilemma: Economic Growth, the Environment, and Climate Change, an international group of authorities examines the present status and likely future of Chinas economic rise and its impact on the environment, with particular focus on the all-important topic of global climate change. The first section addresses directly Chinas recent growth. Specific topics addressed here include the effects on China of the global credit crunch, determinants of growth, and their prospects for the future. Part II addresses Chinas environmental and climate concerns, including the impact on human health, their role in domestic politics, the health effects of environmental damage, and Chinas post- Kyoto climate strategy.
