Based on an urban agglomeration regional planning in 12th Five-Year Planning , selected two indicators of carbon intensity, energy intensity that were required by the regional planning, this paper developed an optimal model of low-carbon urban agglomeration on the base of sustainable development of economy, society and environment. The case study shows that the carbon emission level of urban agglomeration is 1.8×107 tons in 2015, and the carbon intensity was decreased by 19.00% and energy intensity was reduced by 39.17% compared with those in 2010; meanwhile, the carbon intensity and energy intensity in the core area was reduced by 40.00% and 41.86% respectively compared with those in 2010 subject to the conditions of carbon intensity, carbon sink area, energy intensity, GDP and so on. The optimized scheme could not only meet the requirements of carbon intensity decreased by 17.00%, energy intensity reduced by 16.00% in 2015 compared with those in 2010 proposed by 12th Five-Year Planning Outline of Controlling Greenhouse Gas Emission, but also complied with the requirements of carbon intensity decreased by 18.00% and energy intensity reduced by 20.00% of regional planning targets. The established model also provided more decision-making space for the sustainable development of low-carbon urban agglomeration.

This paper developed an optimal model of low-carbon urban agglomeration on the base of energy structure under uncertainty. The case study shows that the carbon intensity was decreased by [32.19, 41.20] (%) and energy intensity was reduced by [34.08, 43.19] (%) compared with those in 2010; meanwhile, the carbon intensity and energy intensity in the core area was reduced by [50.88, 54.11] (%) and [51.24, 54.57] (%) respectively, compared with those in 2010. The optimized scheme could not only meet the requirements of 12th Five-Year Planning Outline of Controlling Greenhouse Gas Emission, but also complied with the requirements of regional planning targets. The established model also provided more decision-making space for the sustainable development of low-carbon urban agglomeration.

Based on an urban agglomeration regional planning in the latest five-year plan, balanced urban agglomeration regional net carbon emissions and economic development space, this paper developed a net carbon emissions index system. On this basis, the minimum of regional urban agglomeration net carbon emissions as the optimized object, selected two indicators of carbon intensity, energy intensity that were required by the regional planning, this paper developed an optimal model of low-carbon urban agglomeration on the base of sustainable development of economy, society and environment, analyzed and studied the consumption of different fossil fuels, biomass energy and the carbon sinks area of agricultural land in the end of 12th Five-Year Plan, provided more decision-making space for the sustainable development of low-carbon urban agglomeration.

This paper corrected the existing optimization model of low-carbon urban agglomeration using interval fuzzy programming (IFP) method and several constraint conditions are revised according to the 12th Five Year Plan of the urban agglomeration. The case study shows that the carbon footprint of per unit GDP of urban agglomeration was decreased by [21.95, 57.32] (%) and energy intensity was reduced by [25.89, 50.81] (%) compared with those in 2010; meanwhile, the carbon footprint of per unit GDP and energy intensity in the core area was reduced by [18.90, 34.67] (%) and [22.36, 22.76] (%) respectively, compared with those in 2010. The optimized scheme complies with the requirements of the 12th Five-Year Planning Outline of Controlling Greenhouse Gas Emission and the regional planning targets. The corrected model also provided more decision-making space for the sustainable development of low-carbon urban agglomeration.

The calculation methodology of transport carbon emissions, based on the methodology recommended by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the energy consumption statistics of provincial transport industry in China, is proposed. By using the methodology, the energy consumption and carbon emissions of highway, waterway and urban passenger transport from 2005 to 2012 of Jiangsu Province are calculated and evaluated. And the developing trends and main features from the perspectives of the total amount of transport energy consumption and carbon emissions, the proportional of both various energy types and various transport modes in the energy consumption, the energy intensity and carbon dioxide intensity, are systematically analyzed. Finally, some policy implications of low-carbon transport development were conclusively put forward, including reducing energy intensity and carbon intensity as the core focus, the highway transport as the breakthrough point, optimizing the integrated transport system structure and developing of public transport in priority as the strategic orientation, developing clean and low-carbon energy as an important way, etc. The research methodology and results can provide references for decision-making and management of the relevant provinces and cities on low-carbon transport development.

Old downtown areas are faced with numerous threats such as removal and rebuilding. The purpose of this research is to reinvigorate the old downtown by low-carbon method rather than the elimination. The article elaborates the understanding of design in the respect of old downtown area renewal with case study of the renewal design of the old industrial district beside Xietang River. And it is pointed out that architectural design and landscape plan should revitalize the site in the city with a combination of retaining site’s history and context with modern language and new technology, which meets the needs of the citizens and realizes the site’s sustainable development.

The rationale of the study is connected with the fact that society has increasingly begun to discuss its responsibility to the generation to come. Without economic aspects, social and environmental issues have become increasingly apparent because there is more and more relevant question whether the natural system will be able to withstand the increasing loading associated with human activities. In Latvia there have been made attempts to promote the principle of sustainable development, its adoption and implementation. On the basis of the above stated rationale of the subject, the objective of the study is to estimate the big Latvian energy companies’ compliance with the principles of sustainable development. The reduction of energy sources and their capacity, greenhouse gas emission caused by energy production, and features of the energy market put forward branch enterprises in front of the principle of sustainable development and the idea of its implementation. To determine the big Latvian energy companies’ contribution to sustainable development, in the survey of representatives of the business environment there have been included questions about the big Latvian energy companies’ compliance with the principles of sustainable development. In the research paper there have been used the statistical analysis of data and the processing method.
