Abstract

In the context of the increasingly severe global greenhouse effect, the “14th Five-Year Plan” proposes to “promote green development and promote harmonious coexistence between man and nature”, which provides a new platform for the faster and better development of low-carbon countries. The low-carbon economy has entered a high-quality stage of China’s economic development in the new era, which is of great significance to the overall green transformation of China’s economic and social development. In order to assess the development level of China’s low-carbon economy, this paper estimates the carbon emissions and carbon emission intensity of energy consumption from 2008 to 2017 and applies the LMDI model to decompose the influencing factors of carbon emissions, analyzes the contribution rate of driving factors, and proposes energy saving, emission reduction and low carbon. Developmental countermeasures. The results show that economic growth and energy intensity are the biggest driving factors for promoting and suppressing carbon emissions, respectively. Measures are taken to improve energy structure, increase utilization efficiency, develop low-carbon industries, and promote low-carbon life.

  • The global greenhouse effect is becoming increasingly serious

  • 22,2020,in which he pointed out that China will increase its nationally determined contribution, strive to peak its carbon dioxide emissions by 2030,and strive to be carbon neutral by 2060.The "fourteenth five year plan" period is an important strategic stage of China's economic development and ecological civilization construction.China should adhere to the concept of "green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains", accelerate green and low-carbon development, vigorously improve environmental quality, improve ecosystem quality and ensure ecosystem stability, vigorously build ecological civilization, and promote the transformation of economic and social development to comprehensive green development

  • Based on the basic model of factor decomposition method, the factors affecting carbon intensity and decoupling state are decomposed into factors of energy structure, energy intensity, economic development and population scale [1]

Summary

Introduction

The global greenhouse effect is becoming increasingly serious. Reducing the impact of greenhouse effect and promoting the transformation from high carbon to low carbon are the responsibilities of all countries, and the important ways for governments to improve their international influence. 22,2020,in which he pointed out that China will increase its nationally determined contribution, strive to peak its carbon dioxide emissions by 2030,and strive to be carbon neutral by 2060.The "fourteenth five year plan" period is an important strategic stage of China's economic development and ecological civilization construction.China should adhere to the concept of "green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains", accelerate green and low-carbon development, vigorously improve environmental quality, improve ecosystem quality and ensure ecosystem stability, vigorously build ecological civilization, and promote the transformation of economic and social development to comprehensive green development
