“…The high resilience of China's economic growth provides ample room for coping with external shocks in order to achieve high-quality development. The Chinese government put forward a sustainable development plan that considers not only quantitative growth, but also qualitative improvement in quality of life [Bei, 2018;Pan et al, 2019;Yan et al, 2020].…”

“…Faced with a series of survival crises brought about by climate change and environmental pollution, human beings began to face up to the relationship between economic development and the natural environment [11]. In order to create a green and low-carbon economic development environment, green development, such as green economy [12][13][14], green building [15][16][17] and green supply chain [18,19] have received high attention from international researchers, which shows that green development is suitable in line with the trend. This shows that green development is in line with the trend, and this development is sustainable.…”

This paper identifies the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics, research hotspots, research frontiers and knowledge base of green development research by using the bibliometric method, mapping knowledge domains and spatial analysis method, and through making a comparison of green development research between China and foreign. The main conclusions are as follows: (1) The number of research literature on green development in China and aboard both show a trend of increasing year by year, and the gap of annual volume evolve a M-shaped trend compared with international scholars. The United States and China are both major countries in green development research, and their international academic cooperation is relatively close. Moreover, the main research findings are concentrated in the northern hemisphere while there is less distribution in the southern hemisphere, and the eastern and western hemispheres are distributed widely. (2) The research hotspots of China’s green development mainly include development concepts, regional and urban development and ecological environment while international green development mainly include green economy, framework, city and supply chain management. (3) The frontiers of China’s green development research are focused on coordinated development, ecological environment and green development concepts while international green development research are more abundant. (4) The knowledge base of the research includes Manuscript of Economics and Philosophy in 1844, the concept of sustainable development and the theory of two mountains.

“…This is because these countries release high levels of CO 2 into the atmosphere, due to high fossil combustion, as CO 2 emission is an important issue in the green economy policy discussion 17,4 . Relying more on technological improvement and implementation of green policy measures can help them to mitigate their CO 2 emissions and to achieve necessary economic benefits 18–21 . These benefits will provide security in resources, stability in economy, and the creation of green jobs 21,22 .…”

This study aims to provide an assessment of total and sectoral CO2 emissions of Iran using a macroeconomic climate analysis. It uses two quantitative approaches (i.e., energy–economy–environment indicators and econometric analysis) that complement each other. According to the latest accessible data (1971–2016), evidence shows that, first, the change in Iran's total primary energy supply can significantly explain the variation of CO2 emissions in Iran, while energy intensity and CO2 intensity cannot significantly explain its variability. Second, CO2 emissions in Iran are increasing rapidly and the country is not moving toward the green economy situations. Third, the increase in energy intensity is mostly related to significant increases in energy consumption rather than increases in economic activity. This evidence shows that Iran's CO2 intensity highly depends on the consumption of fossil fuels. Fourth, the econometric estimates suggest that CO2 emissions, in comparison with other examined variables, change significantly in response to changes in per capita GDP, energy intensity, and carbon intensity. Fifth, the main contributors to industrial CO2 emissions are industrial per capita GDP and energy and carbon intensities, while in the transport sectors, the main contributors are the number of vehicles, transport energy intensity, and carbon intensity. Sixth, further decomposition analysis shows the positive impact of per capita GDP and the negative impacts of energy structure and energy efficiency on total CO2 emissions in Iran. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
