“…(1) The relationship between the net carbon emissions and the economic growth of marine aquaculture generally shows a decoupling state (from Figure 1), but the decoupling relationships in different regions are different, which is similar to the findings of Kong (2021) [40]. In terms of sea areas, the southern ocean economic zone has the most ideal decoupling state, the trend of eastern ocean economic zone is "decoupling-coupling" while the northern ocean economic zone has the trend of "negative decouplingdecoupling-negative decoupling" (from Table 4).…”

Decoupling carbon emissions from economic growth is the key for the sustainable development of developing countries. Based on the panel data of marine aquaculture in China from 2010 to 2019, this paper employs the Tapio decoupling index model to analyze the decoupling characteristics of net carbon emissions and the economic growth of marine aquaculture. The logarithmic average weight decomposition method (LMDI model) and Tapio decoupling effort index model are also introduced to explore the contribution of various areas, provinces, and factors to the decoupling of net carbon emissions and the economic growth of marine aquaculture. Empirical results show that: (1) Net carbon emissions have a decoupling trend from the economic growth of marine aquaculture, but there is a large regional difference. (2) Regarding the degree of decoupling efforts, it is much stronger in the eastern and southern ocean economic zones than that in the northern ocean economic zone. (3) In terms of the decoupling contributions of various factors, carbon emission intensity > aquaculture scale > aquaculture efficiency > aquaculture structure, but there is heterogeneity among the different regions. Among the reasons for the inter-regional differences, carbon emission intensity > aquaculture scale > aquaculture structure > aquaculture efficiency. A further redundancy efficiency analysis explains the source of the differences. On this basis, strategies are proposed to improve the efficiency of marine aquaculture, including the construction of a modern three-dimensional aquaculture system, the improvement of the market-oriented mechanism, and the establishment of a modern marine aquaculture economic system.

“…Therefore, Regional carbon emissions have historically been suppressed more by government-led formal environmental regulation than by informal environmental regulation (Arimura et al, 2019). Furthermore, due to the impact of policy execution, formal environmental management has the features of long-term sustainability in terms of temporal and spatial variation (Kong et al, 2021;Muratoglu et al, 2022). The public's natural interest for environmental protection is the primary focus of informal environmental control.…”

As an important means to promote regional low-carbon development, environmental regulation has great theoretical and practical significance for achieving the goal of carbon-neutral development in China. Based on the panel data of 30 provinces and cities in China from 2005 to 2019, this paper first uses the intermediary effect model to analyze the impact of the implementation of environmental regulation policies on regional carbon emissions, discusses the relationship between environmental regulation, green technology innovation and carbon emissions, and further uses the threshold effect model to discuss the nonlinear relationship between environmental regulation and regional carbon emissions. The results show that: the improvement of formal and informal environmental regulation can play a role in “forced emission reduction”; Green technology innovation plays a complete intermediary role in the impact of environmental regulation on regional carbon emissions; At the same time, the impact of formal and informal environmental regulation on regional carbon emissions has a threshold effect. Among them, formal environmental regulation has a double threshold effect, the threshold values are 0.429 and 0.502 respectively, while informal environmental regulation has a single threshold effect, the threshold value is 1.803. The results of heterogeneity analysis show that there are obvious differences in the implementation effects of environmental regulation policies under different economic development levels and industrialization development stages. Therefore, we should pay attention to the mutual promotion effect of different types of environmental regulation, strengthen the collaborative emission reduction of environmental regulation and green technology innovation, and improve the level of regional green technology innovation, so as to better promote the realization of regional carbon neutrality goals.

“…In the literature on fisheries captures and marine ecological footprints, some interpret initial stagnation and decline of capture fisheries, but long‐term stabilization of capture rates, as evidence that a managed growth model can produce some degree of sustainability in global fisheries (Rashdan et al 2021). Some recent studies find evidence to support a decoupling between economic and environmental impact, or Environmental Kuznets Curve, in fisheries when controlling for measures of trade and investment freedom or when focusing on certain fishing zones in China and some Asian countries (Karimi et al 2021; Kong, Cui, and Xi 2021; Wang et al 2019).…”

Seafood production and trade have expanded dramatically over the last 40 years and comprise one of the fastest growing, and most environmentally impactful, sub-sectors of the global food system. While richer nations have increased their seafood consumption and displaced their environmental load, the marine environmental impact of fishery production has largely shifted to the waters of less-affluent nations. To sustain fishing economies and seafood security, in an era of increasing marine ecological precarity constitutes a major challenge for development and human well-being in the 21st century. Blue growth perspectives emphasize the transformative power of growth-oriented development. Such perspectives conflict with critical political economic theories of environment and food systems; notably, the treadmill of production and world food system scholarship. Using annual data from the Global Footprint Network, World Bank, UN FAO, and International Monetary Fund, this study applies methods in cross-national, panel regression analysis in order to ultimately pose some important challenges to modernist blue growth perspectives. The analysis suggests that economic growth and incorporation into the world market economy have led to unsustainable and inequitable outcomes regarding the marine ecological impact of fisheries.
