Introduction. Environmental and climatic problems of the Russian Federation have attracted considerable attention from scientists, politicians, as well as the general public. Human activities are a major cause of pollution and global warming, which necessitates the search for a new way of economic development reducing the adverse impact on the environment. The authors consider a low-carbon economy aimed at simultaneously solving economic, environmental, and climatic problems as such a guideline. Based on the research conducted the article identifies the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in which pilot projects for the transition of enterprises and cities to low-carbon development are most expedient to implement. The gained experience should be applied in other regions of the country in the future. Materials and Methods. Data from the Federal State Statistics Service and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of the Russian Federation on 20 most populated constituent entities of the country were analyzed. In order to identify the regions with the largest volumes of various types of pollution, the data ranking method was applied. The authors have also carried out an analysis of relative indicators of natural resource intensity associated with emission into the atmosphere, discharges of polluted wastewater, and production of municipal solid waste. Results. The performed analysis has shown the heterogeneity of the environmental and economic development of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. It has been concluded that among the regions considered, it is most expedient to implement pilot projects for low-carbon development in cities and in “polluting” industries located in the Kemerovo, Sverdlovsk, and Chelyabinsk Regions, as well as in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. Discussion and Conclusion. The results of the study can be used in the development of environmental programs, as well as in the development of directions for mitigating the environmental impact in the most polluted regions of the country and in industries with high natural resource intensity.

Low carbon economy provides the direction for the sustainable development of the coal industry, but how to measure low carbon economic development level of the coal enterprise has become social concern. Based on the Xinwen group as an example, the paper constructs level evaluation index system of low carbon economic development about the coal enterprise from the present situation of the development of low carbon economy. Using AHP and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method measure low carbon development level, and the conclusion is that the Xinwen group's low carbon development level is good.

Global warming, which is caused by over consumption of fossil energy during economic development in human society, threatens global ecological balance, tampers social and economic development, imperils energy security, ecological safety, water and food safety, and endangers the entire human race. Low carbon economy is a new economic development model based on low energy consumption, low pollution, and low-emission-based. This paper analyzes the Status quo and Limits of the Chinese Low Carbon Economy, making deep research on Design and Implementation Strategy of Chinese Low Carbon Economic model.

Nowadays the low-carbon economic development model is becoming more and more popular all over the world. The low-carbon economy requires the reduction of the consumption of high-carbon energy and the emission of greenhouse gas, and the combination of economic development and environmental protection. So the tourist spots should also conform to the trend and set low-carbon tourism as their goals that call for energy conservation and emission reduction to build up a good mode of economic circulation. Under this background, this essay explores to put forward a set of reasonable and concise evaluation indicator system. The system tries to fully reflect low-carbon levels of the tourist spots and find out the problems. What is more, the essay can provide a theory basis for the management and the implementation of policies.

In order to deal with global warming, resource depletion and environmental degradation, China must develop low-carbon economy to cope with global climate change and maintain sustainable economic development. The important step in the transfer of low-carbon economy from the theoretical stage to practical application stage is to evaluate the level of economic development of low-carbon and to study its time-space disparities. In this paper, a low-carbon economy index system is used to evaluate comprehensively low-carbon economic development in Hebei Province. The evaluation results are analyzed to verify that the results are consistent with the actual situation of low-carbon economic development by using space-time analysis method.

Due to the increase in global carbon dioxide emissions, climate change, rising sea levels and other issues have become increasingly prominent. In the three major industries, industrial emissions of carbon dioxide accounted for the largest proportion of the total emissions. Developing a low-carbon economy, especially with regard to industrial low-carbon economy, has become the only way for Chinese society to achieve sustainable development. Building a scientific evaluation system of a low-carbon economy is an essential way to assess the level of regional industrial low-carbon economy comprehensively and correctly. In this paper, we establish the Hebei low-carbon economy Evaluation System based on DSR model, according to the industrial carbon economic development in Hebei Province, using factor analysis to obtain the main factors affecting the low-carbon economy in Hebei Province, establishing extended model, then propose measures for Hebei industrial low-carbon economic development.
