Innovation of China's Circular Agricultural Development in the Perspective of Low Carbon Economy

On the basis of the concept and characteristics of circular economy, this paper analyzes the restraining factors of China's circular agricultural development as follows: issues concerning agriculture, countryside and farmers are outstanding; the problems of agricultural resources and agricultural ecological environment are serious; the quality of agricultural products cannot meet the demand of domestic and international market for food. Based on the internal requirements of low carbon economic development, this paper advances four innovative models concerning China's circular agricultural development as follows: the model of combining planting and breeding of agriculture, the developmental model of leisure and sightseeing, ecological integration model, and the developmental model of reusing agricultural byproducts. Every region should choose or create different circular agricultural model in different domains, in order to better use agricultural resources, reduce the consumption of agricultural energy inputs, reduce the emission of agricultural greenhouse gas, develop low carbon agriculture, and make great contribution for meeting the international challenges and promoting China's agricultural development.

On the basis of basic situations of ecological and environmental pollution in Jiangxi Province,following the connotation and development principle of the low carbon economy,this paper discussed ideas of ecological and environmental protection in Jiangxi Province,to lay a solid foundation for better promoting social and economic growth.

A Study on the Coupling Relationship between Low Carbon Economy and Environmental Resources in Jilin Province

In Jilin Province,China,economic development,high output and rational use of resources have become a pair of unrelieved contradictions.The coupling of eco-environmental and socioeconomic systems is not a simple linear addition of these two systems to form an advanced composite system.Therefore,the analysis of the coupling degree between ecological environment and socioeconomic system from the perspective of dissociative structure can be expressed through the establishment of a system coupling model to express the relationship between the two systems.On this basis,a series of analytical indicators are constructed to quantitatively evaluate and qualitatively analyse the coupling between ecological environment and socioeconomy.

Process Reengineering of Cold Chain Logistics of Agricultural Products Based on Low-carbon Economy

Through the process analysis of cold chain logistics of agricultural products,we find that cold chain logistics of agricultural products contradict the development model of low-carbon economy to some extent.We apply the development idea of low-carbon economy,introduce the thirdparty logistics companies,establish distribution center of cold chain logistics of agricultural products,and strengthen information sharing,to reengineer the process of cold chain logistics of agricultural products in China.The results show that applying low-carbon economy to process reengineering of cold chain logistics of agricultural products,has advantages of increasing added value of products,promoting scale merit and abating lag,plays a role in promoting emission reduction,high efficiency and environmental protection in the process of cold chain logistics of agricultural products in China.

Study on Low Carbon Trade Development in China Pearl River Delta Region Initiated by Low Carbon Tariffs

In order to clarify the linkage between carbon tariffs and trade development, the Pearl River Delta region of China, the area with intensive processing trade, was selected to analyze the effects of carbon tariff collections on the production cost, export commodity structure, trade modes and trade terms of the export industries in the Pearl River Delta region, and measures of developing low carbon trade were proposed.

Research on the Comprehensive Evaluation of Low Carbon Economic Development in Shandong Province Based on the Weighted Gra-topsis Method

This paper starts from the analysis of the connotation of low-carbon economy,and establishes the evaluation index system of regional low-carbon economic development level.The main research content is to determine the index weight,judge the correlation degree and sort the decision-making units by entropy method,grey correlation analysis and TOPSIS method,and finally make a comprehensive evaluation of the low-carbon economic development level of Shandong Province.The conclusion shows that the development level of low-carbon economy in Shandong Province shows a good trend year by year,but the consumption dependence on high energy consumption resources and backward ecological benefits are increasingly becoming the bottleneck of the development of low-carbon economy in Shandong Province.

Impact of carbon emissions on economic factors and economic growth in China’s underdeveloped regions: Evidence from Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region

Global warming and carbon emissions are highly concerned by countries all over the world.Since 2005,China has surpassed the United States as the world’s first carbon emission country,but in recent years,China has made remarkable achievements in carbon emission regulation.In 2018,China’s carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP dropped by 4.0%,a cumulative decline of 45.8%over 2005 and equivalent to a reduction of 5.26 billion tons of CO2.But in underdeveloped areas of the western China,economic growth and energy conservation and emission reduction are still facing a severe contradiction.This paper mainly explores the impact of carbon emissions on economic factors and economic growth in China’s underdeveloped regions(Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region)over the period from 1998 to 2017.The Tapio decoupling elasticity index was used to measure the degree of dependence of Guangxi’s economic growth on carbon emissions,and the influence of economic development factors(the GDP,population,technology level and urbanization level)on CO2 emissions was analyzed with the STIRPAT model.The main findings are presented as follows:(1)The relationship between carbon emissions and economic growth in China’s underdeveloped regions over the period from 1998 to 2017 is mainly characterized by weak decoupling;(2)According to OLS(Ordinary Least Square)modeling results,for every 1%increase in carbon dioxide emissions,economy grows by 0.947%,population size decreases 0.621%,urbanization level increases 0.120%,and technical level declines 0.830%.In view of the research conclusions,some suggestions are put forward to promote the economic transformation and upgrading,improve the environmental protection awareness of the population and actively promote the new urbanization.

Progress and prospects of oil and gas production engineering technology in China

This paper summarizes the important progress in the field of oil and gas production engineering during the"Thirteenth Five-Year Plan"period of China,analyzes the challenges faced by the current oil and gas production engineering in terms of technological adaptability,digital construction,energy-saving and emission reduction,and points out the future development direction.During the"Thirteenth Five-Year Plan"period,series of important progresses have been made in five major technologies,including separated-layer injection,artificial lift,reservoir stimulation,gas well de-watering,and workover,which provide key technical support for continuous potential tapping of mature oilfields and profitable production of new oilfields.Under the current complex international political and economic situation,oil and gas production engineering is facing severe challenges in three aspects:technical difficulty increases in oil and gas production,insignificant improvements in digital transformation,and lack of core technical support for energy-saving and emission reduction.This paper establishes three major strategic directions and implementation paths,including oil stabilization and gas enhancement,digital transformation,and green and low-carbon development.Five key research areas are listed including fine separated-layer injection technology,high efficiency artificial lift technology,fine reservoir stimulation technology,long term gas well de-watering technology and intelligent workover technology,so as to provide engineering technical support for the transformation,upgrading and high-quality development of China’s oil and gas industry.

China's Role in Global Climate Change Mitigation

China contributed a majority of the growth in global greenhouse gas emissions in the first 11 years of this century The trajectory of emissions has changed radically since then, as China has irrplemented its Cancun 2010 commitment to reduce the 2005 emissions intensity of economic activity by 40-45percent by 2020. The change in trajectory has been reinforced by China＇s new model of economic growth, with its greater emphasis on equity in income distribution, consumption and services. The large-scale deployment of low emissions technology in China is lowering the cost of transition to a low carbon economy all over the world. China ＇ s new emissions trajectory improves the opportunity For the international community to meet the 2℃ climate target. It is essential that the changes in China are brought to account in shaping global mitigation ambition.
