What is the background of the concept of low carbon?

The concept of low carbon is produced in the context of global warming.

The main core of low-carbon economy is an economic form with low greenhouse gas emissions and high economic growth as elements, which is a development model of economic form proposed to meet the challenges of energy, environment and climate warming. Background of Low-carbon Tourism Low-carbon tourism is produced under the background of low-carbon economy. The main reason for global warming is that human beings have used a lot of fossil fuels such as coal and oil in the past century and emitted excessive carbon dioxide.

At the same time, it has a strong absorption of long-wave radiation (such as infrared rays) reflected by the earth, thus forming "global warming" and bringing very bad consequences. Under the background of global warming, low-carbon economy based on low energy consumption and low pollution has become a global hotspot.

Developed countries in Europe and America vigorously promote the low-carbon revolution with high energy efficiency and low emissions as the core, focus on developing low-carbon technologies, and make major adjustments to policies such as industry, energy, technology and trade to seize the opportunities and industrial commanding heights. The war of low-carbon economy has quietly started around the world.
