如何不犧牲GDP還一片藍天

How Air-pocalypse Ended Without Darkening GDP

彭博亞洲首席經濟學家歐樂鷹撰文稱,寒冬又至,中國人民隨之迎來一件值得感激之事:空氣變得更乾淨了。

As China shivers into another winter, the population has got one thing to be thankful for: cleaner air. says Tom Orlik, Chief Asia economist for Bloomberg Intelligence.

在北京,11月的PM2.5平均數值為54,比去年同期下降高達50%以上。

In Beijing, PM2.5 levels averaged 54 in November, down more than 50% from the same period a year ago.

與此同時,國內生產總值(GDP)自今年以來保持了6.9%的增速,比2016年的6.7%還更高一些。

At the same time, GDP growth is holding up at 6.9% so far this year -- slightly ahead of 2016’s 6.7%.

這些情況無不支持著彭博經濟學家基於經濟、能源消費與控制排放這個簡單模型得出的觀點--治理空氣不一定要以犧牲經濟增長為代價。

That supports Bloomberg Economics』 view -- grounded in a simple model of the economy, energy consumption, and emissions controls -- that cleaner air does not have to come at the expense of lower growth.

彭博經濟學家的模型包含經濟增速,農業、工業和服務業劃分,能源效率提高的速度,從煤炭向其他能源的轉變,以及末端治理的範圍。

BE’s model incorporates the pace of growth, the split between agriculture, industry and services, the pace of energy efficiency gains, the shift from coal to other energy sources, and the scope for end-of-pipe emission reductions.

結果表明,即便讓GDP增速保持在6.5%的目標水平,其它因子與之相抵消的減排效果,也可能將2022年排放水平降至相當於2016年的87%。

The results suggest that even with GDP in line with the 6.5% target, offsetting emissions reductions from those other factors could bring 2022 emissions down to 87% of 2016 levels.

若能接受略低一些的經濟增速和更大刀闊斧的改革,或許可以取得更多成果。

With acceptance of slightly slower growth and more aggressive reforms, even more progress could be made.

eBay將收購Terapeak

eBay Signs Agreement to Acquire Terapeak

全球電子商務先鋒eBay近日宣布已籤署協議,收購Terapeak。Terapeak是一家總部位於多倫多的公司,該公司利用產品的供需和定價數據,幫助賣家掌握在eBay這樣的電商平臺上的選品、銷售時機以及定價策略。

Recently, global commerce leader eBay announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire Terapeak, a Toronto- based company that uses supply, demand and pricing data to help ecommerce sellers know what to sell, when to sell it and at what price on marketplaces such as eBay.

在收購完成後,eBay將把Terapeak的某些功能整合到eBay賣家中心。

Upon the close of the transaction, eBay will begin integrating certain functionality from Terapeak into its Seller Hub.

eBay B2C銷售業務副總裁Bob Kupbens說:「目前,近200萬賣家通過賣家中心管理他們的eBay業務。收購Terapeak後,eBay賣家中心的功能將進一步擴充,從而幫助賣家提升業績與效率。」

「Nearly two million sellers currently manage their eBay business on Seller Hub. Expanding Seller Hub to provide additional capabilities from Terapeak will help our sellers be even more successful and enable them to more effectively manage their businesses on eBay,」 said Bob Kupbens, Vice President of B2C Selling at eBay. 」

eBay對Terapeak的收購預計將在2017年底前完成。屆時, Terapeak的員工將繼續在多倫多和維多利亞等地工作。

The transaction is expected to close before the end of 2017, at which time Terapeak’s employees will continue to be based in Toronto, Ontario and Victoria, B.C.
