The Implementation Of Uk Low Carbon Economic Policy And Its Enlightenment To China

The development of the world economy is inseparable from the support of the environment and resources.However,the intemperance of human economic activities is about to touch the warning line of the tolerance of the natural environment.If we blindly develop the economy and ignore the change of climate,it will certainly bring problems for human to exist in the future.Therefore,coordinating economic and environmental issues has led to the emergence of low-carbon economic research.Low-carbon economy means reducing the pressure of carbon emissions on the environment without slowing down the pace of economic development.Finding a balanced approach to the economy and the environment will help to explore the model of human and natural coexistence,and will also help alleviate the crisis of human development in the future.In order to alleviate the pressure of carbon emissions on the climate,many countries have adopted a series of policy measures to promote the reduction of carbon emissions,especially in the UK,with the most significant development and the deepest development.This paper summarizes the UK low-carbon economic policy according to the standards of different market entities of the government,enterprises and the public.The government mainly focuses on the formulation of laws and carbon targets,while the role of the UK government is incentive and ministrant for companies.For the public,the low-carbon policy is mainly based on guidance and services.The UK government gradually realizes the coverage of low-carbon activities of various subjects in the low-carbon economic policy,and the means and channels are diverse.As a result,there have been achieving several goals in the completion of the overall carbon target and changes in economic and social life including the relief of employment pressure,the optimization of energy structure and the change of public low-carbon lifestyle.Then obtaining the advantages and disadvantages of the UK's low-carbon economic policy from the UK practice,it will provide a rich reference for China's development of low-carbon economy.The development of China's low-carbon economy is relatively later than the UK,while the economic development relies mainly on the consumption of fossil energy,which also causes heavy pressure on emission reduction.However,China's low-carbon economic policy is in its infancy in terms of low-carbon laws and regulations,fiscal and taxation policies,the establishment of a carbon trading market,and public awareness of low-carbon awareness.Therefore,On the basis of the methods and contents of the UK's formulation of a low-carbon economic policy,China can take corresponding measures in terms of law,finance,technology,etc.according to its own conditions and characteristics.At the same time China government can also enrich the methods of low-carbon economic policies along with utilizing its rich new energy sources such as solar energy,wind energy and water energy to replace traditional energy sources and form a diversified energy structure and cooperating with countries such as the United Kingdom in low-carbon economic research and deepening the development of low-carbon theory and technology.The government can also use the development of the Internet to popularize low-carbon knowledge and living habits to promote universal participation in low carbon action.
