Need for development of low carbon economy in China using analysis of Guangdong textile industry as case study

Textile industry is a high energy-consuming industry, which depends on oil, coal and other energy resources. This paper takes Guangdong textile industry as case study and analyses its current carbon emission from the statistical yearbook. Chinese textile industry should transform and develop a low-carbon economy model. Firstly, the government should strengthen the top-level design and improve the relevant legal system. Secondly, new energy and renewable materials needs to be vigorously explored to save energy. Thirdly, the textile enterprises must speed up the industrial transformation and upgrade to enhance the added value in the industrial chain. Finally, consumers are required to update their concept of low-carbon consumption. These ways are helpful to ensure the minimization of “carbon footprint”. Only by developing a circular economy and low-carbon economy, can we build a resource-saving, environment-friendly and low-carbon-oriented society.

The Relationship ◽

Low-carbon economy was an inevitable choice in response to climate warming. With the deep analysis of the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC), this paper used two models to analyze the relationship between the growth of a country’s economic and the quantity of pollutants produced in the process. The empirical study compare the two groups of samples, which described energy consumption per unit of industrial added value, each group contains five symbolic provinces or municipalities in coastal and western areas. The outcome proved the positive significance of technology innovation.

Industry Area ◽

Low carbon economy is the main direction of the future development of China. The hi-tech industry area has the features of tech-intensified, high energy consumption, high pollution, to develop hi-tech industry is good for the transfer from traditional industry to the low carbon economy mode. As a big province of China, it is imperative for Shandong Province to develop the low-carbon economy. Therefore scientific solution on carbon emissions of high-tech industrial area in Shandong province is a problem for government and academic workers to have to face and resolve. This paper analyzes the low-carbon economic situation of high-tech industry in Shandong province, and puts forward some countermeasures for low carbon economy development of high-tech industry in Shandong province.

This paper starts from the analysis of the connotation of low-carbon economy, and establishes the evaluation index system of regional low-carbon economic development level. The main research content is to determine the index weight, judge the correlation degree and sort the decision-making units by entropy method, grey correlation analysis and TOPSIS method, and finally make a comprehensive evaluation of the low-carbon economic development level of Shandong Province. The conclusion shows that the development level of low-carbon economy in Shandong Province shows a good trend year by year, but the consumption dependence on high energy consumption resources and backward ecological benefits are increasingly becoming the bottleneck of the development of low-carbon economy in Shandong Province.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is identification of a methodology to determine CO2 emissions through facility services on an approximate and sufficiently accurate basis. This methodology is to be used by German practitioners for request for proposals (RFPs) and offers of facility services. Design/methodology/approach In accordance with ISO 14067, a matrix of CO2-relevant modules for the representation of CO2 emissions from facility services is developed. Key figures for energy consumption, transport and equipment manufacture and use are used in a case study. Findings For a transparent CO2 assessment of facility services, the following modules are required: work clothing, devices, vehicles (service personnel), supplies, transportation of personnel and overhead (vehicles and office space). In the case study, facility services account for about 30 per cent of the CO2 emissions originating from the use of the building. Research limitations/implications The methodology developed is also applicable to other services. Prior to that, however, the investigation of additional facility services (catering or security) and an extension to other types of facilities is required (office building, hospital, etc.). Practical implications The developed methodology allows transparent competition for low-carbon services concepts, for example, in RFP procedures for facility services. Social implications CO2-optimised facility services increase the demand for low-emission operating equipment and resources. They therefore have an indirect influence on the development of a low-carbon economy. Originality/value To date, there has not been a methodology that supports a transparent and practical summary of the service-related CO2 emissions associated with the resources used in facility services.

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.

The Relationship ◽

To develop low-carbon tourism attraction is conducive to the transformation of tourism industry’s development mode. It can also help China to take the carbon-reducing responsibility in the world, reduce carbon emission and develop low-carbon economy and society. This paper takes Beijing Badachu Park as the case study to analyze the relationship between the development of low-carbon tourism attraction and the tourists’ low-carbon cognition. It shows that there’re two kinds of low-carbon cognition, one is “to know it” and the other is “to do it”. But the reality is there always has some inconformity between consciousness and behavior in low carbon tourism which is bad for the construction of tourism attractions. This article put forward some suggestions to solve this problem: “hardware” transformation, scientifically planning and management, to intervene tourists’ low carbon cognition through “attraction also community” ways, etc.
