The impact of income on household CO2 emissions in China based on a large sample survey

This study provides insights into the impact of income on HCEs from different regions of China.

Understanding the trends and magnitude of income impact on HCEs is crucial in developing and refining climate change adaptation and mitigation policies, including local adaptation policy, economic policy and low carbon policy
