Abstract

Low carbon cities construction is an important content and pointcut of “Two-oriented society” construction. Since Chang-Zhu-Tan urban agglomeration was authorized to be “Two-oriented society” pilot zone by the State Council in December, 2007, Chang-Zhu-Tan Low Carbon urban agglomeration has achieved remarkable progresses and accumulated precious experience which is necessary to summarize comprehensively and systematically to provide effective strategies for the development in next step. Three aspects of contents are presented in this paper. Firstly, four major progresses of Chang-Zhu-Tan Low Carbon urban agglomeration have been summarized systematically. Secondly, successful experiences in five aspects are summarized. Lastly, three main conclusions are concluded.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Chang-Zhu-Tan urban agglomeration has a difference between its broad sense and narrow sense. The broad sense means the so-called “3 + 5” city cluster, they are Changsha City, Zhuzhou City, and Xiangtan City plus cities around them, like Yueyang City, Changde City, Hengyang City, Yiyang City and Loudi City, which are eight cities in all. While the narrow sense means only Changsha City, Zhuzhou City, and Xiangtan City. And it is the narrow sense which is used in this paper.
