Since the "dual carbon" goal was proposed, the topic of carbon emission reduction has become a hot topic in China. The academic community has conducted research on carbon emissions from various perspectives. Firstly, from the perspective of carbon emissions themselves, over time, there is an upward trend in carbon emissions. Secondly, in terms of spatial distribution, it was found that carbon emissions are higher in the east and lower in the west. Lastly, in terms of the influencing factors of carbon emissions, it has been found that the implementation of environmental regulations, the upgrading of industrial structures, and the enhancement of scientific and technological innovation are all beneficial for reducing carbon emissions. The upgrading of industrial structures serves as a link between the transformation of the economic growth model and the scale of economic development. It is also the transformation and upgrading that enterprises must undertake after the government implements environmental protection policies. It is generally divided into two aspects: one is the optimization of industrial structures and the rational allocation of resource elements, i.e., the level of rationalization. The rationalization of industrial structures is an objective condition for the economy to enter a new stage and an urgent requirement for industrial structural adjustment. It mainly promotes total factor productivity through "structural dividends," coordination capabilities, and correlation levels, thus promoting the transformation of the economic growth model and achieving green social development. The second is the continuous process of improving industrial structures from a low level to a high level, i.e., the level of optimization. The optimization of industrial structures is a symbol of China's economic level transitioning from low to high. It mainly achieves green social development by changing the original factor allocation mode and economic growth model.
