Cinema Verde presents an interview with Monika Koeck about her film, "A Low Carbon Future for China’s Furnace Cities". China’s economic development and rapid urbanization has led to a dramatic rise in energy consumption due to excessive heating and air-conditioning causing carbon emissions of immense proportions. China’s government has set the ambitious target of reducing CO2 emissions by 40–45% by 2020 against the 2005 baseline. A UK/China-funded team working on how to solve the problem in some of the most extreme climate regions in China. The team discovers groundbreaking solutions using computational-fluid-dynamics simulations. Our full catalog of video interviews and streaming films is available to members at cinemaverde.org.
