With the rapid development of social economy and the constantly raisingimprovement of the peoples’s living standards, the energy consumption is increasinggradually as well. As the direct products of the energy consumption, the dramaticalgrowth of the level of carbon dioxide emissions has resulted in the greenhouse effectwhich is affecting and changing peoples’s lives in various ways for the moment.Additionally, the words of environment problems has appeared more frequently inrecent years, such as global warming, sea level rise, decreasing biodiversity, ozone holeand extreme weather. The various nature disasters has generated the world aware of theimportance of control of carbon emissions in the economic development. As adeveloping country, China is under great pressure to reduce carbon emission, especiallyin the typical northeast cold area of China which have made great contributions incountry’s industrial development, Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning province. Under thepresent conditions of technology, China’s industrial structure remains based onindustrial projects, but the outdate technology in energy efficiency has negative impactin carbon emission reduction. For this reason, it is necessary to assess the current statusof regional emissions and analyze the key factors that influence carbon emissions.This research is based on the method of carbon footprint and Tapio decoupling,which has analyzed from total amount and the productivity of emission respectively. Onone hand, the results of total amount indicates that the northeast cold area get a upwardtrend in carbon footprint.. Through the assessment key factors of the footprint, such indensity, ecological pressures, output and intensity. The data figures out that the index ofthe CFD is higher than3, and the EPICF is higher than1, which means that there is agreat environment pressure with a growing trend in the future. Also, the slow growth ofVCF and slow drop of CFI represent that technique has slice influence on carbonemissions, the energy consumption per unit declines gradually. On the other hand, theresults of productivity show that the energy efficiency of northeast cold area isrelatively low. Comparatively, Liaoning gets the maximum carbon productivity, Jilintakes the second place but with a downward trend and Heilongjiang has the miniumproductivity. Moreover, the analysis of LMDI model demonstrates the stimulativeelements of emissions are economic growth and population scope, but the inhibitedreason is energy intensity, and both of the industrial and energy structure behavedifferently in the mentioned three typical northeast cold area. Specifically, the industrialstructure reflects a negative effect on Heilongjiang in carbon emissions, but positiveeffect on Jilin and Liaoning. Inversely, energy reflects a positive effect on Heilongjiang,but negative on Jilin and Liaoning. This research is not only based on the evaluation and analysis of current situationin Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning province, but also in the views of industrialrestructuring, optimization of energy structure, low carbon technology application,ecological protection enhancement and development proposal. Meanwhile, based on theprior experience to maintain a smooth progress of carbon emission investigation duringthe Twelfth Five-Year Plan.
