英文摘要 |
Taiwan is an island that relies heavily on international trade. To enhance its competitiveness, it must be fully acquainted with global trends in the development of climate policies. Currently, transformation policies for industry in response to climate change in Taiwan are designed at the island level. However, the recent evidence and arguments emphasize the significance of climate policy at the city scale. This study analyzes scholarly research, policies, and practices related to urban industrial transformation in response to climate change. This first pays special attention to the Industrial Transformation Science Plan (IT Science Plan) in the International Human Dimensions Programme on Global Environmental Change (IHDP). The factors and economic policy instruments that induce urban industrial transformation, as well as measures that move economies toward lowcarbon development, are analyzed, as are those adopted by cities worldwide. Finally, suggestions for future studies and policy designs are provided. |
