Analysis of the Driving Forces' Impact on the Low-Carbon Development of Tianjin Based on STIRPAT Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper is based on STIRPAT model, combined with backcasting theory, using ridge regression analysis to analyze the related data of Tianjin from 1996 to 2011.This paper aims to explore the influences of the five driving factors on the carbon emissions in Tianjin, including population, affluent degrees, Energy intensity, Urbanization rate and the ratio of the tertiary industry. This paper is trying to make policy recommendations to change these influential factors, thus, to decrease the urban carbon degree.
