Abstract

China’s investment initiatives include relations with many countries, especially through the Belt and Road Initiative. The Belt and Road (B&R) could be a mechanism for sustainability and positive change, but it could also prove problematic and easily become a debt trap. Similarly, inherent urban and infrastructure that the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) brings to developing nations could potentially increase carbon emissions, making the emissions targets in the Paris Agreement impossible to reach.
