Abstract: Low-carbon sports tourism is a new form of sports tourism developed in the background of economic restructuring, whose development prospect is promising. In this paper, low-carbon economy, sports tourism and leisure sports are briefly outlined, the factors that restrict the low-carbon sports tourism are analyzed, and some countermeasures for development of low-carbon leisure sports tourism are put forward, so as to realize the low-carbon sports tourism sustainable development.

Abstract: Based on VAR model, the effects of economic growth, industrial structure and energy efficiency on Jilin province’s carbon emission have been analyzed. It is found out that economic growth and energy efficiency change in the opposite direction of carbon emission, while industrial structure changes in the same direction of it, which are main reasons for carbon emission growth. According to this, government should apply its “green function” so as to adjust industrial structure, improve energy transformation and energy efficiency.

Abstract: This paper states the economic reasons of environmental pollution at first, and then introduces the theory, methods and practical measures of pollution control. Finally it puts forward the discussion on controlling the environmental pollution through axiology.

Abstract: This research studies the causal relationship between energy consumption, gross domestic product (GDP), and foreign direct investment (FDI) in Germany for a period of 1971-2010. The empirical results reveal that there is a unidirectional causality running from GDP to energy consumption and from GDP running to FDI in Germany. This is due to the highly rising trends of economic activities in the country which can lead to the expansion in energy consumption. As there is an increase in economic activities within the country, then the growth rate will be in the rising path. As a result, the foreign investors will see the promising future and then invest in the host country. The conservative energy policy is recommended to support the energy saving because it will have little or no adverse effect on GDP. The energy efficiency should be applied by encouraging the use of renewable energy sources in economic activities as an alternative to stimulate the economic growth of the country. Also, the public expenditure should be expanded to increase the country’s economy and attract foreign investors. In addition, the government should support for the service industry such as insurance, finance and banking, and tourism because this type of industry does not consume as much energy as the manufacturing industry does in the overall manufacturing processes. Besides, the government should provide tax credit for the manufacturers who can fulfill the energy efficiency for their operation.

Abstract: The environmental data (carbon emissions, industrial wastewater discharge, exhaust gases emissions and solid waste production.) and economic data (Per Capita GDP) from 1985 to 2010 was selected to fit environmental Kuznets curve (EKC). The results showed that all the EKC models were significantly fitted (p<0.01), the EKC shapes of Per Capita GDP (PCGDP) between carbon emissions, industrial exhaust gases emissions, and industrial solid waste production were inverted-U shape, respectively. The EKC shape of PCGDP and industrial wastewater was inverted-N shape. This study suggested that Henan Province is still at the stage of industrial development, and EKC turning points of carbon emissions, industrial exhaust gases, and industrial solid waste production have not been reached. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize and adjust energy-depended industry structure to improve environment quality and welcome EKC turning points coming as soon as possible.

Abstract: The enterprise is the main body of the market economy, impact of business activities on the environment is multifaceted, the effective management of the environmental performance of enterprises is the basis of circular economy construction, social sustainable development implementation. This article is based on theory of circular economy and sustainable development, analysis of existing problems and shortcomings of enterprise performance evaluation, combined with China's reality, discusses the value orientation of corporate environmental performance management and performance evaluation of the target under the Circular Economy , research building enterprise environmental performance evaluation system, in order to provide reference for decision-making and practice of enterprises.

Abstract: The pollution of the environment of sports tourism industry process intensifies, directly restricts the sustainable development of sports. With the improvement of living standard of the Chinese people and sports undertaking are growing stronger, sports tourism industry is an unprecedented momentum of development. However, with the rapid development of sports tourism, sports tourism industry impact on the ecological environment has become increasingly prominent. This study explore to achieve external environment on sustainable development of sports tourism industry, practical basis, theoretical basis, construction of ecological environmental protection model, clear the relationship between various interest groups, based on the analysis of the atmosphere, water, noise and other pollution problems generated in the process of sports. Sustainable development of sports tourism will be realized by increasing government legislative norms and supervision, implemening scientific compensation mechanism, enhancing public environmental protection awareness, establishing and improving the ecological operation of measures.

Abstract: Based on the theory of industrial ecology,compared to traditional steel industry production process and analyzing steel production material flow、energy flow and technology flow,we build the steel industry ecological symbiosis network. Regarding the steel symbiosis network as a complex system,we systematically analyze its operation mechanism. Analyzing the symbiosis network from its forming condition,we build the steel industry symbiosis network dynamic mechanism model and analyze the dynamic factors,so as to provide scientific guidance and decision making for the construction of ecological symbiosis network.

Abstract: " Science and technology with law " is the world's environmental protection experiences lessons. Our country's current environmental protection law has been unable to effectively solve the increasingly serious environmental problems.The environmental protection law " dualism " ,which claiming that economic development and environment protection coordinated development ,is the shield of environmental pollution and waste of resources . Through comparing and analyzing of our country's , United States' and Japan's current environmental law legislation purpose and the effect of the practice by case , puts forward query to environmental law legislation 'purpose dualism' , further presents '"purpose monism" that taking "protecting environment, maintaining ecosystem " as the basic value orientation.

Abstract: Environmental protection is an important concept of sustainable development. As the main player of sustainable development, enterprises should pursue the ecological, economic and social sustainable development and take social responsibility for the harmonious development of the society and environment. Under the consideration of environmental protection and sustainable development, enterprises should behave environmental friendly to obtain the legitimacy from constituencies. Based on the theme of environmental protection, this paper introduces and discusses the literatures related to sustainable development and legitimacy of enterprises.
