Environmental Disaster in China
Using big data resources and data mining methods, as well as econometric models and etc., this book provides several advanced assessment methods and empirical analysis of the economic impact of environmental disasters in China, and studied China’s sustainability development policy avoiding disasters. This book uses cutting-edge methods, such as generalized difference in difference, inoperational input-output models, improved computable general equilibrium and others to calculate the economic influence of environmental disasters. It evaluates the redistribution of air pollution emissions in China by using improved data envelopment analysis. In short, it provides the ideas, methods and cases of the sustainability development road to avoiding disaster.
