Influential factors of national and regional CO2 emission in China based on combined model of DPSIR and PLS-SEM

In China, carbon emission mitigation is a considerable challenge due to the massive quantity of CO2 emissions, which has been relentlessly growing for a long time. In this study, the Driving-Pressure-State-Impact-Response (DPSIR) method is used to identify the influential factors of China's carbon emissions. This empirical research, which is based on provincial panel data and the structural equation model through the partial least squares...
