An Overall Comparation and Technical Decomposition Analysis of CO2 Emissions in Tokyo and Beijing.

Abstract: In this paper we give an overview of the situation of CO₂ emissions in both Beijing and Tokyo and discuss and compare the causes for their emission changes according to decomposition based on both social activities and fuel varieties. We find that in order to enjoy a sustainable development, Beijing needs to learn from Tokyo especially in energy consumption area. At the end of the paper, the cooperation between these two metropolises is summarized. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
