China has implemented the low-carbon city pilot (LCCP) policy in the hopes of efficiently limiting carbon emission intensity to combat global warming and promote green economic growth. Urban land utilization, the second-largest source of carbon emissions, is key to the LCCP policy being able to have the desired effect, which has attracted widespread attention. Based on the panel data from prefecture-level cities in China from 2006 to 2019, this study used the propensity score matching difference-in-differences method (PSM-DID) to examine the impacts of LCCP policy on green utilization efficiency of urban land (GUEUL). The results reveal that LCCP policy has a beneficial impact on GUEUL and can effectively boost the future possibilities of green and low-carbon city development. Due to variances in regional economic and resource endowment level, the impacts of LCCP are different. The pilot has pushed GUEUL in the eastern region, western region, and growing resource-based cities, but has failed to improve GUEUL in other regions. Policymakers should adhere to the long-term sustainability of the LCCP policy and adopt differentiated action strategies to promote GUEUL when implementing it in different regions.

“…The inter-regional differences between the main marketing area and the balanced area and between the main production area and the balanced area, although there are differences in the magnitude and timing of the increases, are generally consistent with the trend of inter-regional differences between the main production and marketing areas. Li also proposed that there were big differences in agricultural carbon emission and carbon sink: The eastern region has a lower average net carbon sink, while its agricultural carbon emissions have been falling, and its net agricultural carbon sink has been rising [52].…”

The Spatial Disequilibrium and Dynamic Evolution of the Net Agriculture Carbon Effect in China

Considering the comparative perspective of the net agricultural carbon effect in China’s three major functional grain production areas, the Dagum Gini coefficient, kernel density estimation and Markov chain analysis are used to investigate the spatial disequilibrium and dynamic evolution characteristics of the net agricultural carbon effect in China from 2000 to 2019. The results show that the overall net agricultural carbon sink in China is on a fluctuating upward trend, and the net agricultural carbon sink in the main production areas is higher than that in main marketing areas and balanced production and marketing areas. There are obvious differences in the net agricultural carbon sink between different areas, and the differences are expanding; inter-regional differences are the most significant, with the contribution of intra-regional differences second and the contribution of intensity of transvariation the least. The kernel density curve shows that the absolute differences are increasing and that there are gradients and multipolar differentiation within the area. The Markov transfer matrix reflects that the net agricultural carbon effect in China is highly volatile and has a strong internal mobility. The probability of upward shift in an area increases when it is adjacent to a high-level area, and the net carbon effect of agriculture in high-level areas has a strong stability. Based on this, each area should build on its own comparative advantages and explore targeted pathways to reducing emissions and increasing sinks in agriculture while strengthening inter-regional communication and cooperation. It is necessary to build a synergistic mechanism to enhance the net carbon effect of agriculture, which will ultimately help to achieve the “double carbon” target.

“…In the last decade, clarifying the evolution laws between urbanization and ecological environment has become a hot topic and frontier [ 30 ]. Research on the relationship between urbanization and ecological environment is developed from perspectives such as land use [ 7 , 28 , 31 ], urban hydrology [ 32 , 33 ], air pollution [ 14 , 23 , 25 , 34 , 35 ], energy and environmental effectiveness [ 12 , 15 , 36 , 37 ], landfill system [ 38 ], carbon emissions [ [39] , [40] ].…”

“…Urbanization is a complex process, and the ongoing progress and expansion of urban areas have not only fueled economic growth and social prosperity but also profoundly influenced health and sustainable development [ 46 , 47 ]. Factor-dependent and investment-driven urbanization simply pursues an increase in population and industrial agglomeration, and has led to several problems such as inefficient land use, unreasonable spatial distribution, and serious environmental damage [ 19 , 32 ]. This traditional urbanization model faces difficulties in maintaining economic growth while combating the rising trends of congestion, air pollution, and urban sprawl.…”
