Article Preview

Abstract:

On the basis of the calculation of Carbon emissions in Hebei province and Tapio decoupling indicators, this paper has discussed degree of decoupling relationship between economic growth and carbon emissions. The results shows that the decoupling relationship between carbon emissions and economic growth is in weak decoupling in most of the years. Decouple emissions is mainly determined by the energy decoupling. Elasticity of emission reduction and structure made the work face challenges.
