Urban fringe areas are the core carrier for the balance of carbon source and sink in urban regions and the concentration area for conversion of land used for carbon emission and sink. With the support of interpreted data of remote sensing images, through combination of the “Breakaway Point” Analysis Approach and the Index Bound Method, the paper obtains the range of fringe areas of Nanning City and discusses about the driving force mechanism of spatial expansion of lands used for carbon source and sink at the urban fringe areas. The results show that conditions of natural terrain, social and economic factors, development of communication and transportation, urban planning and control, social culture and mass psychology form the driving force mechanism of spatial expansion of lands used for carbon source and sink at urban fringe areas.

Understanding the competing and conflicting interests in peri-urban land is crucial for informed decisions and well-managed urbanization. These interests in peri-urban land in Ethiopia are explored from a political economy perspective, using desk review and case study research. The findings show that the state, the private business sector and the local community are the three main sets of players with competing interests in peri-urban land, which has resulted in the rapid conversion of farmland into built-up urban property. The more land is expropriated by government agents, and the more land is developed by developers, the more revenues are collected by the government and the more profit is realized by developers and dealers, but with less opportunity and security for local communities in the peri-urban areas. Therefore, urban spatial expansion and development programmes in urban fringe areas require purposeful intervention of the government in a way that can accommodate the interests of all parties without conflict.

Since long-term, there is a large gap in the residential environment construction between the rural and urban areas. Based on China is to speed up the socialist new rural construction and improve the living environment of village history background, we analysis urban fringe area planning design under the background of the new rural construction, especially road planning, public space, greening, courtyard planning design in this paper. And we study the urban fringe area of the planning and design of the new rural construction, which combined with the new rural construction practice of ChenJiaDian Village in NongAn Town, Jilin province.

This paper is to propose a method of ecological carbon sink regionalization in the view of GHG (greenhouse gas) emission reduction, which could provide scientific theory basis for development and utilization of urban land resources, ecological environment construction, biodiversity conservation, the industry layout and formulation of the regional sustainable development strategy. Based on the existing researches foundation, this study takes Shenzhen as a typical case to put forward a method for carbon sink regionalization of urban land use with further quantitative evaluation of ecosystem carbon storage (density), carbon sources/sinks function and carbon sink potential of Shenzhen city. The results show that: Shenzhen ecological carbon sink is regionalized into six categories 55 regions, including 15 intensive carbon sink regions, 17 medium carbon sink regions, 10 weak carbon sink regions, 4 carbon neutral regions, 5 medium carbon source regions and 4 intensive carbon source regions.
