Could China lead the world in an effective transition to a green, inclusive global economy? Or will it be too slow in moving towards green to prevent collective catastrophe? Even worse, could China be a virulent part of the problem, savaging the global environment through a reckless dash for continued growth with associated natural resource and climate implications? In Eco-China Inc., Simon Zadek explores the argument that China could - and must - become the 21st century's global eco-warrior, advancing a green transition at a scale and speed that could only be precipitated in peace time by unilateral action taken by an economic super-power. China's future is, however, an open book, and could take us along a very different path, spelling collective disaster. China is at a crossroad, with the capabilities to make a real choice that will write tomorrow's history. In this timely and provocative book, Simon Zadek questions whether China's actions today indicate which pathway it will take, and how China, with the international community, might leverage China's leadership role to mutual benefit.
