Abstract

Climate change has become a great threat and challenge to human survival and development,as the largest developing country and the largest carbon emitter in the world, China is facing the double test of high-quality economic development and effective response to climate change. Therefore, exploring the relationship between carbon emissions and social and economic growth is of great theoretical and practical significance for effectively carrying out carbon emission reduction and achieving the carbon peak and neutrality targets. This paper deeply discusses the research progress of the socio-economic influencing factors of carbon emissions in China and the decoupling relationship between carbon emissions and socio-economic growth, in order to provide a useful reference for China to achieve the carbon emission reduction goal as soon as possible.
