This paper first defines the elements and meaning of rural low-carbon economy. On the basis of theoretical analysis, this paper then analyses the government role in the development of rural low-carbon economy, for example, government should organize and coordinate the development of rural low-carbon economy, should increase the investment of rural low-carbon economy, and should supervise rural low-carbon economy development as well. Last, the paper gives some suggestions for government to follow in the future work.

The article is dedicated to the analysis of the development of alternative energy in Russia as one of the key factors of forming a low-carbon economy model. Authors reviewed the main stages of forming the institutional environment which regulated the process of the transition to a low-carbon economy model and a wider use of alternative energy including renewable energy sources (RES).Authors analyzed the renewable energy industry in Russia. The empirical base of the study consists of auctions results conducted in the framework of the government support of RES during 2013-2018 and the information system “SPARK”. Using the Concentration ratio, the Herfindahl-Hirschman and the Hall-Tideman indices authors revealed a high level of concentration in this industry in the context of each type of RES. In addition, an analysis of the ownership structure of companies has shown that the most successful companies are companies in the form of partnerships between the state, a Russian company and / or a foreign company.

This study traces the transnational interactions that contributed to introducing the low-carbon economy agenda into Chinese policymaking. A microprocessual two-level analysis (outside-in as well as inside-access) is employed to analyse transnational and domestic exchanges. The study provides evidence that low-carbon agenda-setting – introduced by transnational actors, backed by foreign funding, promoted by policy entrepreneurs from domestic research institutes, propelled by top-level attention, but only gradually and cautiously adopted by the government bureaucracy – can be considered a case of effective transnational diffusion based on converging perceptions of novel policy challenges and options. Opinion leaders and policy-brokers from the government-linked scientific community functioned as effective access points to the Chinese government's policy agenda.

The deployment of renewable energy technologies will play a crucial role in the global transition to a low-carbon economy and ultimately in the fight against global warming. However, this transition could face important problems because most of those technologies rely on the steady supply of critical minerals. Colombia, thanks to its hydrological resources, has relied on the hydro­power for electricity generation. However, the government has implemented measures to back-up the energy system in draught periods and, consequently, fossil fuels-based plants have increased the market share and with these, CO2 emissions. This study assesses the mineral demand in Colombia in the period 2020-2050 for the rare earth elements embedded in the deployment of wind power technologies in four different climate policy scenarios in order to establish whether they could face geological bott­lenecks that could ultimately hamper the transition to a low-carbon economy. The Gigawatts (GW) of future capacity additions in the energy system are converted into tons of metal using published metal intensities of use and assumptions of Colombia’s technological pathway. Then, the cumulated mineral demand is compared against current mining production rates and geological reserves to establish geological bottlenecks. The results show that the reserves will not pose any threat to its transition. However, when compared to current mining rates, the mineral demand in 2050 could pose a problem for the supply of minerals. Finally, this study gives some policy recommendations that could be used to mitigate these issues, such as substitution, improved circular economy and sound technological choices.

AbstractDecarbonization and achieving a low carbon economy and lifestyle are important goals for the next generations of young people. The concept proposed in this paper aims to introduce the Romanian students, on a voluntary bases, to the field of climate change mitigation through decarbonization, by organizing a series of workshops and trainings. We will address topics like renewable energy, circular economy, zero waste systems, cleaner production, new resources, innovation management and smart solutions. The participants to the events of the project are intended to become “message bearers” and to act as change agents in their future work places. A community will be formed in the virtual environment (Facebook page, email group, Twitter account, YouTube channel) with all the persons involved in the activities of the project, that will permit the continuation of information and good practices exchange.

Under the background of low-carbon economy, low-carbon tourism has become the response of tourism industry to low-carbon economy. The low-carbon development of eco-tourism areas is the inevitable choice of the tourism industry to achieve sustainable development. The paper uses stakeholder theory to analyze the various stakeholders in the position, function and interest demands in low-carbon tourism development in Qinghai Province of China, and puts forward that the low-carbon tourism development needs to strengthen the leading role of the government and the main role of tourism enterprises, practicing low-carbon tourism consumption patterns as well as establishing the low-carbon life values.

It is introduced the problems that coal mines in China are facing now, including the heavy taxes, the enormous amount of workers, the inefficient supervision and being easily effected by the policy. It is suggested that the government should make some policy which are good for the sustainable development of coal mine, and the government should encourage coal mine to adjust their industry in a scientific way, also it is good to reward the coal mine which are run in a low carbon economy model. During the process to build a sustainable coal mine, attention should be paid that it is a course of events which couldnt be accomplished immediately, time is needed to finish the goal of sustainable development of coal mine in China.

Development of low-carbon economy is an important approach to adjust industrial structure. With the gradual acceptance of low-carbon economic concept, borders of industries gradually become unclear and construction industry steps into the phase of combination. This paper gains the result that the profit of implementing low carbon technology is increasing function or decreasing function to the actual value and by adopting efficient low carbon technology in construction industry in two different fusing stages, and considering the market competition situation through the return condition of referral encouragement. It also gains the situation that the government provides referral encouragement or does not provide referral encouragement by analyzing the relationship between the profits and the average benefits of low carbon in the market, and finally proposes the fusing countermeasures of construction industry in the low carbon economy age. And it gave the accelerate in-depth development of modern construction industry.
