the implementation of China’s SDR proposal will remain an unrealized dream. This is because, as Eichengreen points out, China has other plans - “namely establishing the renminbi as an international currency” (Eichengreen 143). This prediction is indeed a current reality, as the Chinese, for the past two to three years, have been actively trying to internationalize their currency.

Currently half of China's cities cannot meet the air quality standards, and one-third of its land is affected by acid rain (Zhang, 2007). In order to protect its people and nature from dangerous environmental threats, sustainable development of China's growing cities must become a top priority, and a key resolution is making them low carbon cities. Low carbon cities can be defined as
Since implementing capitalistic reforms in the 1970s, the gross domestic product of China has risen by an average of 9.5 percent each year. This growth is expected to continue at this breakneck pace, and China is estimated to overtake the United States as the world’s largest economy by 2026 (Ding 6). This influx in wealth has catalyzed advancements in Chinese technology, has enabled better access to education for millions of people, and has increased the overall standard of living for over a billion
Xiaoping in 1978 promised to produce somewhat parallel long-term results for two of the world’s largest economies. Although China and Russia mirrored each other in the nature of the transitions they were undertaking at the time, their trajectories for future economic and political change are now diverging.

This paper will examine the reality of the potential threats and the extent of the opportunities
