The value of a statistical life (VSL) is crucial tool for monetizing health impacts. To explore the VSL in China, this study examines people's willingness to pay (WTP) reduce death risk from air pollution six representative cities China based on face-to-face contingent valuation interviews (n = 3 936) March 7, 2019 September 30, 2019. results reveal that WTP varied CNY 455 763 (USD 66–111), corresponding range 3.79–6.36 million 549 395–921 940). estimated be 4.76 689 659). statistics...
China's coal-fired power industry urgently needs deep decarbonization to meet the challenge of climate change. Regional air quality improvement and health benefits can motivate efforts achieve low-carbon goals. However, cobenefit per amount carbon reduction may vary drastically across plant units. The strategy targeting more cobenefits has been considered in designing an efficient mitigation pathway, whereas this issue not analyzed at unit level. In study, indicator called benefit by (H/C)...
Abstract Incorporating the health impacts into all kinds of policy decisions has become shared expectations policymakers and public, hoping to obtain most significant benefits with least costs. The value statistical life (VSL), which represents additional cost that individuals are willing reduce risk death, is a core tool for monetizing impacts. Though VSL been widely studied internationally, existing research in China limitations on regional representativeness, questionnaire design,...
