報告內容摘要:
The relevance of water cuts across the various sectors of the economy, from the running of residential daily life to economic activities. In China, surface water and total water resources have decreased by 5.2 and 3.2% during 2001-2009 relative to the period 1956-2000. In this talk, I will address the issues related to water use and water management in the agricultural, industrial, and power sectors. I will also discuss how the climate change affects water use efficiency and water use technology in response to the increase in water scarcity. The effectiveness of current and future water use policies to address sustainable management of water resources are empirically investigated by using data at national, provincial, sectoral, firm levels.
