Description :
A lengthy time perspective is combined with a cross-sectional approach, China plus 5 other countries, and addressed through 2 general models. The results suggest that a diversified economic structure is consistent with diminished intensity in energy use. Secondly, they imply that a diversified energy structure promotes reductions in CO2 emissions. Finally, the findings point to a path for countries to transform their economies while at the same time undertaking to drastically moderate their energy use, with a pattern in which lighter carbon emissions prevail.
