This book estimates terrestrial vegetation carbon sequestration data based on remote sensing satellite data, collects the temporal and spatial characteristics of carbon sequestration by vegetation at county level and grid scale in China, and predicts the future change of carbon sequestration by vegetation in China. Based on the major strategic development goals and specific practices of China''s carbon neutrality, this book shifts the research perspective from the side of carbon reduction to the weaker side of carbon sequestration. It not only broadens and enriches the research boundaries and theoretical connotation in the field of carbon neutrality, but also provides a perspective reference for further research on carbon sequestration by vegetation, which has pioneering academic value for future research on carbon dioxide. The satellite data is collected to calculate China''s long time series and multi-type district and county vegetation carbon sequestration data set, which can meet different research needs and application scenarios. The practical value lies in providing basic data for the research of carbon neutrality, the establishment of carbon trading market and the calculation of vegetation carbon sink, and providing an important reference index for evaluating the ecological and environmental effects of land change. This book combines remote sensing technology, Geographic Information Science (GIS), spatial visualization technology and index decomposition technology to measure vegetation carbon sequestration in counties and districts of China, reveals the spatial-temporal dynamic change process of vegetation carbon sequestration, and explores the driving influence of social factors.

This book employs a systematic and multi-faceted approach to explore China''s coal consumption, emissions, and its development model. The book first provides an overview of the global and Chinese energy consumption trends and mix, with a particular focus on the position and role of coal. Through comparative analysis, it clarifies the importance of coal in global and Chinese energy security. It details the environmental problems arising from coal consumption, especially carbon dioxide and other harmful gas emissions, and their impacts on global climate change and human health. By collecting and analyzing extensive data, such as coal consumption volumes and carbon dioxide emission levels, the book presents the historical trends and current status of China''s coal consumption and emissions. The book conducts comparative study on China and global policies related to coal consumption control and clean energy development, providing insights and lessons for China. It explores the development model of technologies such as clean and efficient coal utilization, renewable energy, and carbon capture and storage (CCS), assessing their potential to reduce coal consumption and emissions.

This book focuses on the evaluation, coordination, and effects of China’s natural resource utilization. By adopting both quantitative and qualitative analyses, this book objectively evaluates the spatial distribution characteristics and coupling relationship of China’s natural resource utilization based on the status quo and prominent problems during resource utilization. Moreover, the environmental, economic, and price fluctuation effects of China’s natural resource utilization are discussed. Finally, current policy systems for efficient utilization of natural resources in China and abroad are provided, which suggest a way for China to achieve efficient utilization of natural resources through an appropriate policy mechanism.
