This study develops an integrated InVEST-GeoDetector-PLUS framework to assess carbon storage and saltmarsh blue carbon (SBC) dynamics in Jiangsu coastal zone, China, from 2000-2020, and simulates future scenarios (2030-2050). The Policy Reg…

Yucheng Zhu, Ke Wang

This study develops a tripartite evolutionary game model of government, enterprises, and consumers to analyze how command-control, market-incentive, and voluntary policies jointly promote green production and consumption. Findings show that…

THE ROLE OF FINANCIAL INCENTIVES IN PROMOTING CARBON NEUTRALITY THROUGH ECOLOGICAL COMPENSATION

This paper examines the role of financial incentives in achieving carbon neutrality through ecological compensation schemes. It focuses on policy design and economic mechanisms to promote decarbonization actions by firms and regions. While …
