Mechanisms and Empirical Studies of Carbon Emission Reduction Driven by Digital Economy
Based on China's provincial panel data from 2014 to 2020,the evaluation index system of digital economy development level is constructed to comprehensively evaluate the digital economy development level of each Chinese province,and the impact of digital economy development on China's provincial carbon dioxide emissions is empirically tested on this basis.The research results show that there are obvious regional differences in the development level of digital economy,showing a situation of strong in the east and weak in the west;there is a certain negative effect of digital economy development on carbon emissions,and the improvement of digital economy development level can significantly reduce regional carbon emissions;digital economy development will indirectly have a suppressive effect on carbon emissions by influencing industrial structure and technological innovation.It provides policy insights to alleviate regional imbalances in digital economy development and to achieve the"double carbon"goal.
