China’s poverty alleviation policy promoted ecological-economic collaborative development: evidence from poverty-stricken counties on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Are Poverty Alleviation and Carbon Reduction Parallel Paths? Empirical Research on the Interaction Between Poverty Alleviation and Carbon Emissions

“…Considering that poverty alleviation will have a strong impact on carbon emissions by affecting population density changes, industrial structure changes, and fiscal expenditures (Hua et al, 2022), especially the industrial structure. The upgrading of industrial structure can alleviate the contradictory relationship between environmental protection and economic growth in poverty-stricken areas (Ran & Hua 2023).…”

“…In fact, the development of carbon-neutral policies has a pro-poor function in addition to emission reduction, due to carbon trading and carbon markets, and especially, the carbon trading offset mechanism can and improve the low-carbon development of “agriculture, rural areas and farmers” and get rid of poverty (Zhang & Yang, 2021). Through carbon trading, carbon tax, voluntary emission reduction agreements, financial subsidies, and government regulation to achieve carbon emission reduction in agricultural land, the low-carbon carbon reduction function of circular agriculture and the potential of capital technology market can be activated, and meantime, the planting industry structure and farmers’ income distribution will also be adjusted (Hua et al, 2022). Carbon pricing policies also enables to effectively reduce inequality between “rich” and “poor” regions (Zhang et al, 2023).…”

Are the epidemic prevention facilities effective? How cities should choose epidemic prevention facilities: Taking Wuhan as an example

“…Apart from that, its high-speed railway network radiates to more than half of China, and is the only city in central China that flies directly to the other five continents of the world. What’s more, the region with the highest economic density in China, and the heart of the Wuhan urban circle is known as the “Oriental Chicago” ( 52 , 53 ). This city had 13 districts under its jurisdiction by 2019 with a total area of 8,569.15 square kilometers, a registered population of 9,083,500, and a floating population of 5,103,000.…”

Urban resilience under the COVID-19 pandemic: A quantitative assessment framework based on system dynamics

“…It can be seen that single dimensions of urban resilience amid the pandemic have been widely discussed from different perspectives; however, given the complex interactions among different urban systems, studies that enable the assessment of the multidimensional impacts of such PHEs on cities from a systematic perspective are still needed. In this regard, some researchers have discussed the urban resilience of an energy-economy ( Wang & Wu, 2021 , Shehabi, 2022 ) or a social-ecologic dimension ( Botequilha-Leitão & Díaz-Varela, 2020 ; Hua et al, 2022 ), but few of them have attempted to evaluate the impact of large-scale PHEs from a comprehensive and city-scale perspective. Their impact mechanism on cities is not clear, and a holistic and inclusive framework is needed to reflect the dynamic connections among different urban systems.…”
