In the background of the rapid development of market economy, a large number of carbon dioxide emissions, leads to the obvious imbalance of carbon in nature. In recent years, the global temperature is getting warmer, the sea level is rising year by year, and the grain production is also significantly reduced, which will bring a great threat to the normal survival and development of human beings. In order to protect the environment on which human beings live, low carbon economy is put forward. Under the environment of low carbon economy, private enterprises are not only facing new development opportunities. At the same time, private enterprises are also facing new development challenges. If they want to develop further, they must actively deal with them. The author analyzes the opportunities and challenges faced by private enterprises under the environment of low carbon economy, and puts forward specific countermeasures, hoping to be helpful to the long-term development of private enterprises.

Facing the pressures of international carbon emission reduction, the transformation into a low-carbon economy has become a common issue of all countries. The core of developing a low-carbon economy is to increase carbon productivity, which can be measured as the economic benefits of unit carbon emissions. Therefore, using province-level panel data in China from 2009 to 2017, we analyze the carbon productivity level of each region, and empirically investigate the threshold effect of clean energy development on carbon productivity under different technological innovation levels. The results show that the carbon productivity is rising, and China’s economic development pattern has been shifting towards low-carbon and sustainable development. Furthermore, the driving force of clean energy development on carbon productivity is not monotonously increasing (decreasing) but is a “double threshold effect” of technological innovation capability. Finally, based on the research conclusions and realistic requirements of China’s low-carbon economic transformation, this paper proposes improving carbon productivity from the aspects of innovation capability improvement and institutional guarantee.

AbstractClimate change has emerged as one of the most important environmental issues worldwide. As the world’s biggest developing country, China is participating in combating climate change by promoting a low carbon economy within the context of global warming. This paper summarizes the pathways of China’s low carbon economy including the aspects of energy, industry, low carbon cities, circular economy and low carbon technology, afforestation and carbon sink, the carbon emission trading market and carbon emission reduction targets. There are many achievements in the implementation of low carbon policies. For example, carbon emission intensity has been reduced drastically along with the optimizing of energy and industry structure and a nationwide carbon trading market for electricity industry has been established. However, some problems remain, such as the weakness of public participation, the ineffectiveness of unified policies for certain regions and the absence of long-term planning for low carbon cities development. Therefore, we propose some policy recommendations for the future low carbon economy development in China. Firstly, comprehensive and long-term planning should be involved in all the low carbon economy pathways. Secondly, to coordinate the relationship between central and local governments and narrow the gap between poor and rich regions, different strategies of carbon emission performance assessment should be applied for different regions. Thirdly, enterprises should cooperate with scientific research institutions to explored low carbon technologies. Finally, relevant institutions should be regulated to realize comprehensive low carbon transition through reasonable and feasible low carbon pathways in China. These policy recommendations will provide new perspectives for China’s future low carbon economy development and guide practices for combating climate change.

Due to the increase in global carbon dioxide emissions, climate change, rising sea levels and other issues have become increasingly prominent. In the three major industries, industrial emissions of carbon dioxide accounted for the largest proportion of the total emissions. Developing a low-carbon economy, especially with regard to industrial low-carbon economy, has become the only way for Chinese society to achieve sustainable development. Building a scientific evaluation system of a low-carbon economy is an essential way to assess the level of regional industrial low-carbon economy comprehensively and correctly. In this paper, we establish the Hebei low-carbon economy Evaluation System based on DSR model, according to the industrial carbon economic development in Hebei Province, using factor analysis to obtain the main factors affecting the low-carbon economy in Hebei Province, establishing extended model, then propose measures for Hebei industrial low-carbon economic development.

The development of low-carbon economy is a revolution which has involved in the mode of production, lifestyles and values and is also an important way that China should take so as to cope with the challenge of global climate change and promote the technological innovation. The development of low-carbon economy is in line with the scientific and sustainable development concept which should be followed in China. It is in accordance with China's construction of resource-saving and environment-friendly society. This paper discusses the low-carbon economy from four aspects: its connotations, features, problems and countermeasures.

In advocating the principle of sustainable development, urban development calls for reducing the carbon dioxide emissions to promote low carbon economy. Low-carbon design is the foundation and effective method of low-carbon economy development. By analyzing the principles of low-carbon urban development, methods of low-carbon design were discussed so as to guide people's low carbon consumption and reduce carbon footprint. Low-carbon design process was proposed at last. In this way, the development of low-carbon urban could be carried out by starting from the source.

This paper analyzed the background of developing low economy in China, included restricts and advantages. China is the world’s largest carbon emitter and its emissions continue to rise with rapid growth. The most important is that coal will continue to dominate China's energy mix for decades to come. The measures to reduce carbon emissions mainly include laws and regulations, carbon taxes or carbon trading, subsidies or tax cuts on clean production, technological innovation. Low carbon economy is an important growth point sustainable development.
