Impact of New Quality Productivity and Industrial Structure Upgrading on Carbon Emissions——An Empirical Study Based on Panel Data of the Yangtze River Economic Belt
Based on the statistical data from the 11 provinces(cities)of the Yangtze River Economic Belt from 2011 to 2022,this paper constructs a fixed effects model to examine the impact of new quality productivity and industrial structure upgrading on carbon emissions.Additionally,a mediation effect model is developed to explore the mechanism by which new quality productivity affects carbon emissions.The resultsindicate that new quality productivity and industrial structure upgrading can effectively suppress carbon emissions across the entire Yangtze River Economic Belt,with a more pronounced effect in the downstream regions.Furthermore,industrial structure upgrading plays a partial mediating role in the process by which new quality productivity suppresses carbon emissions.Therefore,it is imperative to fully promote the development of new quality productivity,empower industrial transformation and upgrading comprehensively,effectively drive the optimization and upgrading of industrial structures,and holistically foster green economic development.Efforts should be made to enhance the coordination of all elements across the entire region,constructing a comprehensive green industrial chain cluster.
