Abstract:Air pollutants have strong homology with greenhouse gases and are closely related to fossil fuel combustion. The high-intensity energy use in the eastern region of China has turned this region into a hot area of carbon dioxide emission and heavy air pollution in the past. Since the implementation of the Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution, the adjustment of industrial structure and the improvement of terminal treatment technology have been driving the succession of key species of air pollution and the spatio-temporal distribution of greenhouse gases in China. This paper analyzes the trend in major air pollutants and greenhouse gas concentration in different regions of China from 2013 to 2020, and reveals the migration of air pollution and carbon emissions from the east to the northwest China. Based on statistical data, the causes of the changes in the spatio-temporal distribution of air pollutants and greenhouse gases in China are clarified, and corresponding solutions are proposed. The results can provide scientific and technological support for realizing the goal of pollution and carbon reduction synergy.
