Under what background did the idea of low-carbon economy come into being?

The concept of low-carbon economy came into being under the background 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. Low-carbon economy is one of the important links to realize green development, which is characterized by building an economic development system based on low energy consumption and low pollution and aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, including low-carbon technology, low-carbon energy system and low-carbon industrial system.

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", make major adjustments to policies such as industry, energy, technology and trade, and seize opportunities and industrial commanding heights. The war of low-carbon economy has quietly started around the world.

The sustainable development of low-carbon economy by ecological resources, on the one hand, is to actively undertake environmental protection responsibilities and fulfill the national energy-saving and consumption-reducing index requirements; On the other hand, it is to adjust the economic structure, improve the efficiency of energy utilization, develop emerging industries and build ecological civilization.

With the emergence of low carbon, low-carbon society, low-carbon city, low-carbon supermarket, low-carbon campus, low-carbon transportation, low-carbon environmental protection, low-carbon network and low-carbon community all flock to all walks of life, making low carbon a fashion. Only in this way can we better standardize the solid and orderly promotion of "low-carbon economy", realize the emission reduction targets put forward by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, and truly become the propeller to promote social sustainable development.
