Abstract

Since the industrial revolution, the global economy has being growing, the negative effects of climate change, one of which is gradually revealed. Some experts and scholars constitute part of the evaluation system for low-carbon city. A set of evaluation index system of low carbon city scientific plays an important role. Previous research also lacks of a low-carbon comprehensive evaluation of urban sustainable building horizontal and vertical. This passage creates the assessment index system of sustainable construction of low-carbon city. A set of evaluation index system of low carbon city scientific plays an important role. Scientific low carbon city evaluation index system can be used as a reference for decision-makers to make decision, help them avoid weaknesses in the low carbon city management, and make a modern new city with economic, social, cultural, ecological civilization coordinated development.
