Advancing Carbon Reduction and Pollution Control Policies Management: Theoretical, Application, and Future Impacts

The global imperative to combat climate change necessitates a strategic transition from energy consumption dual control to carbon emission dual control. This shift is not only a policy evolution but also a fundamental reorientation towards sustainable development. It demands a profound reassessment of energy production and consumption, with a particular focus on their environmental and carbon footprints. The theoretical framework for this transition is deeply rooted in ecological economics, environmental justice, and the pursuit of a low-carbon economy.

The primary objective of this Research Topic is to construct a cohesive and interdisciplinary framework that integrates the theoretical and practical dimensions of the transition to carbon-centric control mechanisms. It is imperative to identify, analyze, and overcome the barriers and challenges inherent in this transition, while also exploring and promoting innovative solutions that can ensure a smooth and effective transformation.

Recent advancements have been notable in the development of carbon pricing mechanisms, the integration of renewable energy into the grid, and the establishment of energy efficiency standards. Moreover, significant strides have been made in carbon capture and storage technologies, which are pivotal for reducing emissions from existing infrastructures.

This Research Topic aims to provide a comprehensive platform for the discussion of the theoretical underpinnings, practical applications, and future implications of the transition from energy consumption dual control to carbon emission dual control, with a specific emphasis on carbon reduction and pollution control policies.

Contributors are encouraged to address themes such as:
• The integration of carbon reduction strategies within environmental policy frameworks
• Technological innovations that support renewable energy and enhance energy efficiency
• Economic models that incentivize and facilitate low-carbon practices
• The social and behavioral dynamics of adopting carbon emission control measures
• Case studies that demonstrate successful policy implementations in carbon reduction and their potential for replication
