Article: The current status, opportunities, and path selection of cultural industries facilitating China's economic transformation from the perspective of "dual carbon" Journal: International Journal of Environment and Pollution (IJEP) 2023 Vol.73 No.1/2/3/4 pp.24 - 51 Abstract: This paper explores opportunities and strategies for advancing China's economic transformation within the 'dual carbon' strategy framework by analysing current cultural industry trends. Overall, our results revealed that the scale of cultural industry continued to expand since 2012, but there were still some issues such as imbalanced regional development, inadequate competitiveness of cultural products, and insufficient international influence. Thus, within the context of the 'dual carbon' background, we found that the emerging cultural tourism model, new infrastructure construction, the virtual trend of cultural products, and the rise of digital consumption promoted the emergence of new forms of cultural industry. In conclusion, we advocate that the government should establish a mechanism for the coordinated development of cultural and tourism industries, formulate policies to incentivise community culture and enhance the construction of digital cultural infrastructure, and establishment a platform for the exchange of cultural resources.

Abstract: This paper explores opportunities and strategies for advancing China's economic transformation within the 'dual carbon' strategy framework by analysing current cultural industry trends. Overall, our results revealed that the scale of cultural industry continued to expand since 2012, but there were still some issues such as imbalanced regional development, inadequate competitiveness of cultural products, and insufficient international influence. Thus, within the context of the 'dual carbon' background, we found that the emerging cultural tourism model, new infrastructure construction, the virtual trend of cultural products, and the rise of digital consumption promoted the emergence of new forms of cultural industry. In conclusion, we advocate that the government should establish a mechanism for the coordinated development of cultural and tourism industries, formulate policies to incentivise community culture and enhance the construction of digital cultural infrastructure, and establishment a platform for the exchange of cultural resources.
