Abstract

Transportation is an important source of carbon emissions. Since the level of urban traffic motorization enhanced quickly, the problem of carbon emissions derived from transportation has become a significant concern in recent years. It has become a key issue to study how to effectively reduce the carbon emissions of urban residents and to develop low-carbon urban traffic. The authors study 33 communities in Guangzhou city and analyze the characteristics of carbon emissions in each community, where the influence factors of carbon emissions are analyzed by establishing a multiple regression model. Finally, some policy suggestions are accordingly proposed to reduce the carbon emissions of residents.
