Global warming is attracting more and more countries and regions to be concerned about the environmental problems. On the whole, the developed countries have started earlier in the field of developing low-carbon economy, and their experience is worth researching and referring for the developing countries. At present, china’s low-carbon economy is in its infancy, and the experience of the developed countries in developing low-carbon economy will provide us with some helpful enlightenment.

Currently, the global warming becomes serious and has become the crisis and challenge of all the world. Low carbon economy is the best mode of coping with the global warming and realizing sustainable development of economy and society. At present, The United States is still in the first place of greenhouse gas are worth of using for reference in developed countries. At present, the United States is still the biggest country that exhausts greenhouse gases, such as CO2;however, carbon emissions in China can not be ignored. Recent research indicates that it is valuable to learn from developed countries carbon or energy taxes policy.

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.

Global warming in the key period, all countries in the corresponding measures are put forward, the resulting low carbon economy become a global trend. Low carbon economy has become the development in the world today and future development of the main melody. This paper analyzes the background of low carbon buildings, put forward the meaning of a low carbon economy, emphatically analyses the meaning of low carbon buildings and our low carbon building currently in question, compared to developed countries construction development a low carbon economy advanced experience, and explores our country construction on the future development of low carbon building method and the strategy.

Under the background of dealing with global warming, low-carbon economy has been chosen by countries in the world seeking for the balance between economic development and environmental protection, and low-carbon industry has become the foundation for development in low-carbon economy. This paper puts forward corresponding solutions to existing problems which covers structural optimization of low-carbon industry difficult to achieve in a short term, the shortage of the core technologies, financing difficulties, and ineffective co-operation of government and enterprises.

Global warming, which is caused by over consumption of fossil energy during economic development in human society, threatens global ecological balance, tampers social and economic development, imperils energy security, ecological safety, water and food safety, and endangers the entire human race. Low carbon economy is a new economic development model based on low energy consumption, low pollution, and low-emission-based. This paper analyzes the Status quo and Limits of the Chinese Low Carbon Economy, making deep research on Design and Implementation Strategy of Chinese Low Carbon Economic model.

Economic development and information and communication technology (ICT) are found to move together in the present day era of globalization. ICT can contribute significantly in economic development of a region by providing adequate information at the minimum of time and cost, thereby enhancing productivity in different sectors of an economy. This fact is substantiated by several studies (Kraemer & Dedrick, 2001; Pohjola, 2001). Some country specific studies like that of Singapore (Wong, 2001) also highlighted similar results. ICT diffusion in the world has been quite rapid since the mid 1990s. While the developed countries have benefited substantially from the ICT growth, the developing countries could not reap similar benefits out of it which has resulted in emergence of a digital divide across the countries (Economist, 2000; Nkrumah, 2000; Norris, 2001). This divide is noticed not only across countries but also within a country and this is more prominent in developing economies like India. ICT diffusion is another area which needs more attention in India as it will lead to ICT access and application of ICT in real sectors to increase productivity and output. During the past one decade India has made rapid advances in ICT growth as reflected in the increase in the number of Internet connections and users. The growth of Internet connections and users in the country is shown in Table 1.

Recent years saw the global wave of new low-carbon economy which is a strategic measure to cope with global warming, and it has gained concerns from many governments. As the representatives of developing countries, China is responsible for “common but distinguishing duty for global climate change.” Many policies have been made to develop low-carbon economy with the hope to advocate and innovate low-carbon economy in some industries and cities during these years. Therefore, it is a theoretical and innovative project to find a low-carbon economical model for various industries and carry out the experiments of low-carbon economy in some cities. Hence, guided by low-carbon economy theory, choosing booming Chinese tourism industry as the object, this paper constructs an operation framework system of low-carbon tourism development from the advantage of low-carbon tourism to the proposal of low-carbon tourism definition so as to conclude an execution scheme of “six elements” of low-carbon tourism with selecting OCT East (Chinese national ecotourism demonstration district) and Mt. Danxia (World Geo-park) as demonstration districts to discuss about models and methods of low-carbon economy in tourism.

Nowadays the low-carbon economic development model is becoming more and more popular all over the world. The low-carbon economy requires the reduction of the consumption of high-carbon energy and the emission of greenhouse gas, and the combination of economic development and environmental protection. So the tourist spots should also conform to the trend and set low-carbon tourism as their goals that call for energy conservation and emission reduction to build up a good mode of economic circulation. Under this background, this essay explores to put forward a set of reasonable and concise evaluation indicator system. The system tries to fully reflect low-carbon levels of the tourist spots and find out the problems. What is more, the essay can provide a theory basis for the management and the implementation of policies.
