The issue of 'carbon reduction' can be said to be one of the most important issues worldwide. For efficient carbon reduction, it is necessary to consider ways to increase absorption and reduce emissions. Accordingly, much attention has been paid to increasing carbon absorption using blue carbon biomass. Blue carbon biomass refers to an ecosystem related to blue carbon, which has a higher carbon absorption rate than inland ecosystems and a longer collection period. It is very efficient in reducing carbon. Therefore, in this study, a current status survey was conducted on domestic and foreign policies, studies, and plans related to the preservation of blue carbon biomass habitats. Basic research was conducted to prepare plans for future preservation of blue carbon biomass habitats suitable for the domestic environment.

The purpose of this paper is to suggest the method of creation and management of urban green field based on carbon emission reduction. For a case study, Daejeon Metropolitan City in Korea was chosen. For the study, the relevant concepts of green field and carbon emission plans are reviewed as a theoretical research, and current problems of the urban green field are surveyed focused on metropolitan cities in Korea. Implementation plans of park and green in Daejeon Metropolitan City were analysed in the aspect to carbon emission reduction, climate change responding and urban green field expansion. Finally, as a result of the study, the method of creation and management of urban green field based on carbon emission reduction in the perspectives of urban structure change, green field network, conservation of green field and relevant institutions are suggested.

This study aims to clarify the concept of 'Low-carbon urban regeneration', to extract planning elements according to it, and to establish the planning system. In order to extract the elements, matrix analysis was conducted between planning elements of urban regeneration and Low-carbon cities, and the focus group interview(FGI) was used. Derived elements from this process were restructured for the new planning system. In addition, in-depth case analysis was performed to verify the suitability and effects of planning elements and system. The result showed that planning element of Low-carbon urban regeneration can be sorted in 37 elements in 5 categories. In-depth analysis indicated that established planning elements were importantly dealt in cases and played a significant role in urban regeneration and carbon reduction. Also, it showed that those elements had a significant relationship with adaptation and mitigation, the two responding strategies to the climate change. Elements highly contributing to urban regeneration were Urban Structure, Transportation, Policy while elements affecting carbon reduction were Transportation, Green & Blue space, Energy & Material field.

This study mainly focuses on urban regeneration project as a countermeasure to resolve climate change issues by analyzing the carbon-reduction effect of Jeonju test-bed cases. First, an urban regeneration project is designed for city, Jeonju by analyzing its environmental problems and potential improvement. Then, carbon emission and reduction amounts are evaluated for different businesses and scenarios. Carbon emission sources are classified according to a standard suggested by IPCC, and the emissions are calculated by various standard methods. The result shows that carbon emission amount in Jeonju test-bed is 102,149 tCO2eq. The fact that 70% of the emission from energy sector originates from buildings implies that urban regeneration projects can concentrate on building portions to effectively reduce carbon emission. It is also projected carbon emission will decrease by 3,826tCo2eq in 2020 compared to 2011, reduction mainly based on overall population and industry shrinkage. When urban regeneration projects are applied to 5 urban sectors (urban environment, land use, green transportation, low carbon energy, and green buildings) total of 10,628tCO2eq is reduced and 4,857tCO2 (=15.47%) when only applied to the green building sector. Moreover, different carbon reduction scenarios are set up to meet each goal of different sectors. The result shows that scenario A, B, and C each has 5%, 11%, and 15% of carbon reduction, respectively. It is recommended to apply scenario B to achieve 11% reduction goal in a long term. Therefore, this research can be a valuable guideline for planning future urban regeneration projects and relative policies by analyzing the present urban issues and suggesting improvement directions.

Since $CO_2$ emissions are recognized as the biggest contribution to climate change, the needs and international efforts for $CO_2$ emissions reduction are increasing. The developed countries are driving strategies to boost green industry as a new growth engine. Following this global trend, based on the ongoing U-City project as a new city model, it is required to analyze the changes of $CO_2$ emissions in U-City to identify its potential for reducing carbon dioxide emissions. This study aims at identifying the potential and effects on $CO_2$ reduction by analyzing the level of $CO_2$ emissions before and after introducing U-City. Bundang-Gu, Seongnam-City & Ilsan-Gu, Goyang-City among Phase I new tow ns were selected as model cities before introducing U-City and Dongtan-Dong, Hwaseong-City as a model city after introducing U-City. The result showed 30% reduction of $CO_2$ emissions in the comparison of tw o models.

산업혁명을 거치면서 높은 화석연료를 사용하는 제조업 중심의 산업구조와 많은 자원을 필요로 하는 도시의 집중 현상으로 지구 온난화에 따른 이상기후 발생이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 기후변화는 홍수, 태풍, 폭염 및 폭설 등의 자연재해 발생 빈도 및 규모를 증가시켜 피해가 커지고 있다. 특히 인구 및 시설들이 집중해 있어 도시의 집중 현상은 이러한 재해에 더욱 취약한 구조가 됨에 따라 피해의 규모를 가중 시키고 있는 실정이다. 전 세계적으로 기후변화 문제의 심각성을 인식하고 이를 해결하기 위해 선신국에 의무를 부여하는 교토의정서(1997년) 채택에 이어, 선진국과 개도국이 모두 참여하는 파리협정(2015년)을 채택하였고 2016년 협정이 발효되었다. 파리협정의 목표는 산업화 이전 대비 지구 평균온도 상승을 2℃보다 아래로 유지하고, 나아가 1.5℃로 억제하기 노력하는 것을 강제하는 것으로 2050년까지 탄소 순배출량을 '0'으로 만든다는 탄소중립사회로의 전환이 본격적으로 시작되었다. 본 연구에서는 기후변화로 인한 물부족 및 수실오염과 같은 도시의 수자원 문제 해결을 위해 IoT 기반 센서 및 네트워크 기반 수자원 플랫폼을 개발하였다. 도시 수자원 시설 데이터를 기반으로 대체 수자원 확보 및 수요 중심의 물 관리를 통해 효율적인 물 배분이 될 수 있도록 하였으며 이러한 스마트 물 관리에 따른 대체 수자원 확보 및 효율적 물 배분이 탄소 저감에 미치는 효과에 대해 분석하였다. 연구대상 지역은 세종 6-4구역으로 LID 특화지구로 조성되었으며 1,000 세대의 주민이 생활하는 공동주택이다. 물 순환(LID) 시설에서 확보된 물을 물 공급 시설과 연계하여 공동주택에서 활용함으로써 감소된 상수 사용량을 온실가스 배출량으로 환산하여 탄소 저감량을 계산하였다. 실제 주민들(1,000세대)이 사용하고 있는 상수량 데이터와 전력거래소 온실가스 배출계수를 활용하였으며 물순환(LID) 시설로 확보하여 대체할 수 있는 상수량은 10%로 가정하였다. 연구대상 지역(1,000세대)의 연간 상수공급량은 331,603m³이며, 연간 전력사용량은69,637kWh이다. 온실가스 배출량은 31.963tCO₂eq이며, 온실가스 저감량은 3.2tCO₂eq로 산정되었다. 추후 LID 시설에 대한 상수 대체량과 온실가스 저감효과 정량화가 필요하다.

In response to the growing global concern for the environment, the international community has recently committed to achieving 'carbon neutrality.' As a result, numerous studies have been conducted on mode choice models that include carbon emissions as a variable. However, few studies have established a correlation between individual preferences and carbon emissions. In this study, a new mode of transportation named sustainable public transit (SPT), incorporating carbon-reducing transport options like electric scooters, is proposed. Analyzing the individual preferences of commuters on carbon emissions through factor analysis, a stated preference (SP) survey was conducted. A mode choice model for SPT was constructed using multinomial logit models. The results of the analysis showed that gender, income, and specific preferences, such as a passion for exploring new routes, a preference for intermodal transfers, knowledge of carbon reduction, and carbon reduction practices, significantly influence latent preferences for SPT. Therefore, this study is significant as it considers carbon emissions as an attribute variable during the construction of mode choice models and reflects the individual preference variables associated with carbon reduction.

This study drew the reason of the limitation in low-carbon city plan from a absence of 'social sustainability' and supplemented its limitation by suggesting the new concept of city facility called Green Media. It clarified the concept of Green Media, and analyzed its effect on low-carbon city plan based on the analysis of related cases inside and outside the country. This study made an important step forward in introducing the new concept to complement social sustainability, analyzing its effect, and suggesting the applicable details.

기후 위기가 대두되며 탄소중립에 많은 관심이 쏟아지고 있다. 탄소중립을 실천하기 위한 여러 가지 방법 중 도시의 수목을 관리하는 것은 탄소배출 저감, 대기질 개선 등의 환경적인 긍정적 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 수종별 온실가스 흡수량과 흡수 계수에는 차이가 있지만 도시 나무 캐노피를 증가시키면 온실가스 흡수량도 증가한다. 본 논문은 탄소정보공개 프로젝트(CDP)에서 제공하는 데이터를 기반으로 도시의 녹지 지대를 구글 지도(Google Map) 위성사진을 통해 찾아내고 지니 계수(Gini Coefficient)를 통해 도심 녹지 균형을 비교하였다. 향후 도시 수목과 녹지 데이터를 축적해 기초자료가 쌓이면 도시환경의 지표로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
