With the highly praised development of low-carbon and implementation of western development strategy, the various industries of northwest faced great stress with how to weigh the economic growth and reduce carbon emissions. In this study, based on the data about energy consumption and GDP in the construction industry of five northwestern provinces, and estimates the carbon emissions of construction indirectly. Then combined withDecoupling Theoryanalysis the interacted impact among carbon emissions, energy consumption and economic growth in the construction industry of five northwestern provinces .The results shows that the development of construction industry in provinces is still based on high energy consumption and high carbon emissions, but each impact degree of them are different. Finally, put some suggest improvements to reduce the energy consumption and carbon emissions in the construction industry path of five northwestern provinces.

Construction of the regional industrial competitiveness coefficient model to measure and evaluate the dynamic trend of industrial transfer between the manufacturing industries of the eastern, central and western regions since its formal implementation of the western development strategy in 1999, China, the results show that from 2000 to 2010 the absolute superiority of the eastern part of the manufacturing sector is still obvious, even to expand, and the East Midwest gap has not narrowed, as well as the expansion of large-scale industrial transfer and did not happen.

A new, independently designed household income survey for China in 2002 shows some decline in income inequality in both rural and urban China since 1995. However, the overall Gini ratio for China remained unchanged due to a rise in the urban–rural income gap. The reduction in rural inequality stemmed mainly from a fall in both inter-provincial inequality and inequality within most of the provinces, as well as from a further improvement in the distribution of wage income and farm income and a reduction in the regressiveness of net taxes. The reduction in urban inequality came from a fall in inter-provincial inequality and better distribution of imputed rental income and net taxes. The results raise questions about whether recent more equity-oriented policies, such as the “great western development strategy,” began to reduce some dimensions of overall income inequality. For the first time, a special survey was implemented to furnish data on migrants living in towns and cities. Incorporating the migrants into the urban population raises urban inequality and reduces the urban–rural gap somewhat, but leaves the latter still very high by international standards.

The main causes of the faster growth in China's eastern coastal area, and thus for the rise in income disparity between eastern and western regions, are the rapid increases in foreign trade and foreign investment resulting not only from the government's coastal development strategy but also from inherent advantages of the eastern coastal area. Since 1999, the development strategy for western China has focused on the injection of large amounts of capital, but fiscal constraints make this strategy unsustainable. China's government should allow mobility of the labor force across regions to play a bigger role in solving the income disparity problem.

Because China is in an accelerated industrialization and urbanization development stage, low carbon economy transformation is subject to the pressure of the external environment.The low carbon economy is in response to climate change under the background of sustainable development of economic growth mode, the low carbon technology development and the reserve in China lags behind the developed countries,and so low carbon economy economy transformation is facing many difficulties.The government and the enterprise must make and carry out scientific development strategy ,pay great attention to the low carbon technology innovation and use,and strengthen the system innovation and institutional constraints security function.Through the guidance and encouragement improving energy efficiency technology,energy saving technology, renewable energy technology and green gas emission reduction technology,and through the change of economic and social development philosophy,achieve higher carbon productivity economic prosperity.
