With one-fifth of the world’s population, one-sixth of the world’s carbon emissions, and an economy likely to become the world’s largest within a decade or so, China is important to any study of contemporary global change.  Researchers at CIS-HDGC and EPP pursue collaborative research with Chinese colleagues in a number of domains central to China’s energy, environment, and risk transitions.  These include studies of the health impacts of air pollution, the history and effectiveness of air pollution policy, the social dimensions of energy technology choice, and the public perception of environment and technological risk.
