Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This is a call for papers for the topic “Frontier Progress in Digital Economy and Carbon Emissions”, which has been devised to inform both the body of knowledge and practice on aspects of sustainability in the digital economy and environment. With the continuous development of economic level and improvement of social welfare, there is also a serious climate crisis. Large amounts of carbon emissions have led to extreme climate phenomena such as frequent droughts and glacier melting. Therefore, the promotion of carbon emission reduction has become a major issue that countries around the world need to address urgently. The digital economy, with data as a factor of production and digital technology as a support, will certainly make disruptive changes in the way economic development progresses, and in production structure. As a new economic form, the digital economy has the advantages of being green, fostering innovation and enabling sharing, which can reduce carbon emissions through their effects on infrastructure, resource allocation and structural optimization. This Special Issue collection brings together state-of-the-art literature and practice to help us understand the effects of the digital economy on carbon emissions, and to find the most promising solutions to reduce carbon emissions and mitigate climate change. This Special Issue welcomes papers that use qualitative and/or qualitative research methods. We invite you to submit your cutting-edge research for consideration.
Topics may include, but are not limited to:
- Big data economy and sustainable development;
- Artificial intelligence and sustainable development;
- Digital finance and sustainable development;
- Digital currency and carbon emissions;
- Digital economy, industrial structure and carbon emissions;
- Digital economy, technological innovation and carbon emissions;
- Industry digitization and carbon emission efficiency;
- Other topics related to the digital economy and carbon emissions.
