Abstract

Since the beginning of China's industrialization process, the economy has achieved sustained and stable rapid development. But at the same time, there are also a series of problems such as waste of resources and environmental pollution in the process of industrialization. As China gradually enters the middle and late stage of industrialization, environmental protection and carbon emission reduction have become important issues for sustainable economic and social development. This paper mainly analyzes the problems existing in the development of low-carbon economy in China, such as the excessive consumption of resources, the backward industrial structure leading to the aggravation of ecological pollution, the need for further application of science and technology in the treatment of ecological pollution, and the inadequate management of local administrative departments. On this basis, in view of the problems facing the development of low-carbon economy, a series of relevant policy Suggestions are put forward, such as changing the economic growth model, unswervingly promoting the adjustment of industrial structure of Chinese enterprises, vigorously developing science and technology of low-carbon energy conservation in China, strengthening the government's environmental control, and strengthening the public and enterprises' awareness of environmental protection.
