PHBS Hosts Seminar on Carbon Economics in Shenzhen

Peking University Shenzhen School of Economics (PHBS) in Shenzhen, China, recently hosted a "Carbon Economics Salon" seminar, focusing on the economic aspects of carbon emissions. The event convened nearly one hundred scholars, policymakers, and industry representatives.

The seminar addressed the increasingly critical interdependencies between climate and trade, particularly within the Asia-Pacific region. Discussions centered on reconciling climate policy with economic development and the role of carbon markets in emissions reduction.

Participants explored strategies for integrating climate considerations into economic planning and debated the efficacy of various carbon pricing mechanisms. The goal was to foster a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities presented by carbon economics in the region.

PHBS aims to advance academic research and public discourse on economic and environmental issues. This seminar represented an effort to provide a platform for exchanging insights and developing potential solutions to pressing climate and economic challenges.
