“…Under the global environment of advocating low-carbon economy, many countries have proposed corresponding carbon reduction policies from the perspective of energy security and climate change. China adopts energy-saving subsidies to achieve carbon emission reduction by using government financial subsidies to guide and regulate carbon emissions in the market and encouraging manufacturers to conduct low-carbon production, as well as consumers to make low-carbon purchases (Basiri and Heydari, 2017;Wang et al, 2021c). The United Kingdom, the United States, China and other countries also use carbon footprints to measure the total amount of greenhouse gases generated during production and service activities.…”

PurposeThis study aims to build a global environmental quality protection convention to jointly address the problems of environmental pollution governance worldwide.Design/methodology/approachFrom the perspective of environmental pollution of the air, ocean, forest, water and solid waste, the authors summarize the main important measures and mechanisms of environmental pollution governance in various countries.FindingsThe results indicate that management research on biodiversity and natural resources must be strengthened, the relationship between economic development and environmental quality management needs to be balanced, the comparative study of domestic and international environmental governance theories and practices should be strengthened, empirical and applied research on environmental governance needs to be focused on, and complete system research on environmental governance and management should be explored. In the future, further strengthening environmental awareness, addressing environmental pollution and managing environmental quality are necessary.Originality/valueThe environment is the foundation of human survival and development. With the development of economy, contradictions between human and natural environment (e.g. air, ocean, forest and water) have become prominent. Environmental pollution governance cannot only help address existing environmental problems but also solve economic problems of various countries. The prerequisite for sustainable development is to lay a solid foundation for the coordinated development of economic growth and pollution management.

“…The basic issues of the structure, function, interaction and spatial and temporal evolution laws of the composite system of marine resources, economy and society have not been comprehensively covered, making the study on marine resources and economic development lack depth.Lack of innovation in research methodology. The empirical models and conclusions of many existing studies on land-based resource economics are empirical summaries based on specific conditions and are not fully applicable to the field of marine resource economics (Wang et al. , 2021b).…”

PurposeWith increasing marine resource development, the rapid development of the marine economy, and the continuous decline of the marine natural resource system, the contradiction between marine resources and economic development is becoming increasingly acute. The study of marine resources and economic development has become a hot and challenging issue in marine resource economics research in recent years. The purpose of this study is to analyze the current situation of marine resources and to realize the sustainable use of marine resources.Design/methodology/approachThis study systematically reviews and analyzes the current status of research on marine resources and economic development issues in four main aspects: marine resource management, marine resources and economic growth, marine resources and economic security, and marine resource accounting in the field of marine resource economics.FindingsIt is found that compared to the current status of research on land-based resources and economic development, there is a significant lag in both theoretical construction and methodological innovation in marine resources and economic development.Originality/valueThe purpose of this study is to systematically grasp the current status of marine resources research, promote the coordinated development of marine resources and economic growth, and then realize the safe and sustainable development and utilization of marine resources.

“…With the gradual completion of industrialization, as a world power responsible for carbon emission reduction, China's carbon emission reduction pressure is increasing day by day, and the problems of inefficient energy use and low investment efficiency in China's secondary industry are gradually coming to the fore [1][2][3]. At present, few previous studies have been conducted in the primary industry, and most of them focus on the decomposition of carbon emission factors and carbon emission estimation, while relatively few previous research have been conducted on the peak path and peak value [4][5][6][7]. Among the tertiary industries, transportation is the main source of carbon emissions [8].…”

Exploring the path of energy structure optimization to reduce carbon emissions and achieve a carbon peak has important policy implications for achieving the “Dual Carbon” target. To this end, this paper explores the optimal path for China to achieve the “dual carbon” target from the perspective of energy structure optimization in three steps: (1) we forecast China’s carbon emissions and carbon intensity during 2024–2035 based on a combined forecasting model; (2) we simulate the development of energy consumption and carbon emissions under the “economic development scenario-energy structure scenario” with the help of Markov chain forecasting model; (3) we construct a multi-attribute decision model to account for the above elements as variables to calculate a composite index to analyze the optimal path for China to achieve “Dual Carbon” target under different decision preferences. It is found that (1) potential negative effects caused by COVID-19 are not as serious as reported; (2) only the scenario with low-speed economic growth and effective policies guiding, which doesn’t follow laws of social development, can contribute to reaching carbon peaking by 2030 while maintaining a high-quality carbon intensity; (3) the optimal path that scenario with middle-speed economic growth and strict cost control is a sub-optimal choice subject to realities; (4) technologies innovations in green or low-carbon fields are needed to accelerate energy consumption structure optimization.
