Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The world has entered the era of the digital economy, which engenders precise producer–consumer connections. Market participants can quickly and accurately match market supply and demand. Doing so reduces search costs and transaction costs, accelerates information retrieval, and lowers resource input and consumption. At the same time, the digital economy features abundant infrastructure construction based on digital technology; examples include digital base stations, data centers, 5G networks, and industrial Internet. These facilities consume vast power. The digital economy also remains in its infancy, especially in conventional industries. Coordinated development of the digital economy and green economy is urgently needed to promote sustainability. Enhancing digital technology innovation, fostering enterprises’ digital transformation, expediting traditional industries’ digital penetration, enhancing the energy efficiency of digital infrastructure, and encouraging green technology advances can prompt such coordinated development. This Special Issue of International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH) focuses on the state of knowledge regarding links between the digital economy and green development. Papers addressing the coordinated development of both are invited for potential inclusion in this issue.
Submissions related to the following topics are welcome, but not limited to:
- Digital economy and carbon emissions;
- Digital economy and energy efficiency;
- Digital economy and regional green development;
- Digital Finance and green development;
- Digital trade and green development;
- Cross-border e-commerce and green development;
- Digital technology and green technology innovation;
- Digital marketing and green development;
- Human resource management for the coordinated development of digital economy and green economy;
- Global/regional/organizational cooperation for the coordinated development of digital economy and green economy.
