Abstract: Based on the survey (2013) of Mount Qian tourist attraction in Liaoning and the questionnaire on tourists home and abroad, the writer analyzes the data concerning tourists’ protection of tourism environment and thus draws the conclusion that a host of factors can account for the difference in tourists’ behavior and attitudes to environmental protection. Key factors include gender, level of education, awareness of environmental protection, attitude to environment and pressure from people around. Pressure from others is the most influential variable among these factors. Statistics also show that travellers tend to be passive in their involvement in enviromental protection.

Abstract: Understanding the structure of man-made elements of environmental human life within, in particular, of sociological knowledge is virtually absent, despite the formation of such theories of the middle level as sociological technology in the European Research Area. The necessity for social and humanitarian problems of knowledge determined by the need to expand its theoretical and methodological matrices beyond industry imperatives and methodological convergence of traditional paradigmatic bases on universalist grounds according to omplications of socialantropogenetic environmental dynamics and transformation of historically determined forms of social relations in a fundamentally new, hybrid People-phenomena. Scientific significance of article implementation is illustrated by the substantial renovation features of social theory by incorporating into its unusual subject area previously problematic groups of objects due to the specifics of the technological development present stage, as a product of "social" and the creation of scientific conceptual, methodological and methodical and instrumental complexes that ensure their understanding and predicting evolutionary development lines.

Abstract: While Social cognitive theory has received wide applications in the health communication and education, it has gained little attention in green building market despites its relevance and applicability. The study builds upon social cognitive theory major attributes such as intention, forethought, motivation and expectation to conceptualize a motivation and expectation model for commitment of developers and investors to green building construction and supply. Based on the conceptualized model we infer that motivational expectations of developers and investors in green building construction and supply are rooted in the quest for profit maximization, financial viability of green construction, expected rate of return, monetary incentives, green certification and awards, public image, social and ethical responsibility. However, it is predicted that the nature and strength of relationships among some of these factors will be moderated by available green building skills.

Abstract: Low carbon economy is a major innovation in mode of development, human economic life consumption mode, technology innovation and policy measures as support, the establishment of a kind of low energy consumption, low pollution, low emission and high efficiency, high efficiency, high efficiency and low carbon industry chain, so as to realize the economic development pattern of low carbonization, human life consumption low carbonization of the new mode of economic development. In order to promote the development of low carbon economy, starting from the connotation of low carbon economy and the perspective of industry chain path, establishment principle of the evaluation index system of low carbon economy, low carbon economy is constructed evaluation index system.
