    • As a critical support platform for the industrial green and low-carbon transformation, industrial parks play an essential role in driving the achievement of dual carbon goals and addressing international green trade barriers. The product carbon footprint serves as a quantitative tool for measuring greenhouse gas emissions throughout the product lifecycle, providing a scientific basis for identifying and prioritizing links with significant emission reduction potential within industrial parks. In response to the inadequacies in data sharing and traceability mechanisms, a comprehensive framework and four-step implementation strategy based on the integration of identity resolution and blockchain technology for product carbon footprint in the park have been proposed. This includes a six-layer core technology architecture along with a proposed roadmap for future advancement. This approach has the potential to comprehensively enhance foundational capabilities for green development of industrial parks.

    • Research on rule-of-law coordinated path of carbon emission governance under the dual carbon goals
    • REN Xumin
    • Information and Communications Technology and Policy. 2025, 51(5): 85-90. DOI:10.12267/j.issn.2096-5931.2025.05.014
    • Abstract ( 299 ) HTML( 103 )   
    • The realization of the “dual carbon” goals has put forward higher requirements for carbon emission control. At present, carbon emission governance is confronted with practical challenges such as questioning the necessity of legislation, chaotic law enforcement, and difficulties in judicial application. From the perspective of multi-dimensional rule of law, the two dimensions of public law and private law provide a research basis for the legal synergy of carbon emission governance. On the one hand, the application of public laws is indispensable for the governance of carbon emissions in our country. On the other hand, enterprises should be regulated by relevant private law norms during their production and operation, carbon emission rights trading with other enterprises, and the disclosure of carbon emission information. To this end, the realization of the rule of law for carbon emissions should establish an overall collaborative path featuring the coordination of public and private laws, as well as the coordination of laws, policies and technologies.
