报告摘要：Cities are at the forefrontof the battle against climate change. However, intercity comparisons andresponsibility allocations among cities are hindered because cost- andtime-effective methods to calculate the carbon footprints of global cities haveyet to be developed. We establish a hybrid method integrating top-downinput–output analysis and bottom-up crowdsourced data to estimate the carbonfootprints of global cities. The increased carbon emissions that come from highconsumption lifestyles offset the carbon reduction by efficiency gains thatcould result from compact city design and large city scale.
