长江经济带能源消费、生态环境污染与产业转型升级

Energy Consumption, Eco-environmental Pollution and Industrial Restructuring and Upgrading in Yangtze River Economic Belt

能源是经济社会发展的基础。21世纪以来,长江经济带经历了工业化和城镇化的快速发展,大量能源消耗的同时带来严重的生态环境污染问题。过去20年,长江经济带经济增长与能源消费变化趋势紧密相关,并极大地影响着化石能源消费碳排放及雾霾污染。产业作为能源要素和生态环境的重要连接体,在经济活动中的纽带作用至关重要。要解决长江经济带由能源消费带来的碳排放及雾霾等生态环境污染问题,就必须发挥科技创新的中介作用,以工业为突破口,突出绿色发展理念的引领,强化绿色创新产业链建设,促进产业集聚和区域协同创新,不断推进产业绿色转型升级。

Energy is the foundation of economic and Social Development. Since the 21st century, the Yangtze River Economic Belt has experienced the rapid development of industrialization and urbanization. Over the past two decades, the economic growth of the Yangtze River economic belt has been closely related to the changing trend of energy consumption, and it also has greatly affected the carbon emissions and smog pollution of fossil energy consumption. As an important link between energy elements and ecological environment, industry plays a vital role in economic activities. In order to solve the ecological and environmental pollution problems, such as carbon emissions and smog caused by energy consumption in the Yangtze economic belt, we must utilize the intermediary role of scientific and technological innovation, take industry as the breakthrough point, and highlight the guidance of the concept of green development, strengthening the building of green innovation industrial chains, promoting the industrial clustering and regional collaborative innovation, and continuously promoting green industrial restructuring and upgrading.
