Discussion on Energy Saving and Emission Reduction System in Colleges and Universities from the Perspective of Low Carbon Life

As one of the energy-saving and emission-reducing units, colleges and universities should raise the ideology of building a low-carbon campus life and actively explore the institutional arrangements for building energy-saving and emission-reducing campuses. Based on the rise and connotation of low-carbon life in colleges and universities, this paper summarizes the characteristics of four aspects of low-carbon life, environmental protection, scientificity and renewability of campus, and then analyzes the work of energy saving and emission reduction in colleges and universities. Energy conservation and emission reduction is the basis for realizing the low-carbon life of college campuses, the need to spread the concept of low-carbon life, the guarantee of building an innovative country, and the mission of sustainable development of people and nature. Finally, energy-saving emission reduction for college campuses The problems encountered in the process are mainly analyzed from the perspective of the lack of system, and it is proposed that the energy conservation and emission reduction system for colleges and universities should establish a sound energy conservation and emission reduction supervision system, rationally formulate the project implementation and operation management system, and build energy conservation and emission reduction incentives. Institutional systems, the establishment of an energy-saving emission reduction innovation system, and the implementation of the campus low-carbon life code of conduct system to compensate for the lack of institutions.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon pointed out in 2008 that all countries in the world should carry out the "Copernican-style low-carbon revolution". This "revolutionary" hammer has been solemnly ringed since then, and then undergoes the comprehensive brewing catalysis of the 2009 Copenhagen Climate Conference. Forming, it can be said that today, this revolution has begun to sweep the world [1]. Low-carbon life in colleges and universities should establish a research team to study low-carbon economy in education and learning, and infiltrate the low-carbon concept into the teaching of various disciplines; in the school environment, pay attention to the bits and pieces around us to create low-carbon, environmentally friendly and green Campus environment. Therefore, it is imperative to save energy and reduce energy in colleges and universities from the perspective of low-carbon life, which is a major issue for the sustainable development of people, people and the campus environment.

1 The rise and connotation of low-carbon life in college campus

1.1 The rise of low-carbon life in college campuses.

With the development of low-carbon economy, domestic and foreign scholars have gradually deepened and comprehensively studied the fields involved in the construction of low-carbon campuses. Low-carbon campus is derived from low-carbon economic theory, ecological theory, sustainable development theory, and higher education management theory. It has profound theoretical basis and distinctive characteristics of the times. It is a low-carbon economy and other theories in colleges and universities. The specific practice is also the specific action of the university to practice the low-carbon concept.

Low-carbon lifestyle refers to the use of ecological values ​​as a guide to proactively restrain one's behavior in daily life, avoiding the use of CO2-evaporating goods and services that accept CO2 emissions, saving resources, protecting the environment and reducing carbon emissions. Simple, simple, and healthy green lifestyle behavior pattern [2]. A low-carbon lifestyle must be based on respecting nature, protecting the ecology, protecting the environment, and promoting the harmonious development of people and nature as the ultimate goal, creating a harmonious lifestyle in which people, people and nature develop harmoniously.

1.2 The basic connotation of low-carbon life in college campus

Low-carbon life is an attitude rather than an ability, respecting nature, advocating simplicity, pursuing the truth, internalizing ecological responsibility and consumption responsibility into the moral responsibility of future generations, and constraining oneself from the food, clothing, housing and living in life. Behavior, let low-carbon life be around us. In this paper, the author believes that the low-carbon life of colleges and universities is the behavior and living habits of the people. Through the concerted efforts of teachers and students on campus to save energy, save water, save fuel, and save energy, realize a harmonious living environment of people, people and nature. Create a simple, simple, and healthy green campus lifestyle. In the academic world, through the research on the construction of low-carbon life in college campuses, it is found that the low-carbon life of college campus has the following four characteristics:

1.2.1 Altruism. Although the advocacy of low-carbon life on campus is later than the construction of economical campus construction, it is a complete complement and enrichment of the campus construction. The low-carbon life of campus is not individual savings in the narrow sense, it is against people, Sustainable thinking of harmony between man and nature, it is an altruistic act. Therefore, low-carbon life on campus is an individual self-help behavior under the crisis of survival, and it has the characteristics of self-interest and altruism.

1.2.2 Environmental protection. Campus low-carbon lifestyles are quite different from traditional lifestyles. The traditional way of life is a non-environmental, unhealthy, high-energy, high-consumption, high-consumption lifestyle, and low-carbon life on campus is to minimize the energy spent on campus life, including campus space. Energy-saving and emission reduction, office supplies, daily necessities, etc., thereby reducing carbon dioxide emissions, allowing individuals on campus to participate in the environmental protection of the team, and ultimately achieve the harmonious development of people and campus, campus and nature. Low-carbon life advocates that we can save energy and reduce emissions from campus life, and enjoy life and environmental protection. Therefore, low-carbon life on campus highlights the characteristics of environmental protection.

1.2.3 Scientific. Low-carbon life on campus promotes a sustainable lifestyle. Scientific life promotes physical and mental health and overall development, and further promotes harmony between man and nature. Realize resource conservation on the basis of coordinated development of people and nature, provide teachers and students with green and healthy students, work and living environment, low-carbon and efficient management system, scientifically formulate campus energy-saving and emission reduction system, and have high work efficiency and Large management benefits. Therefore, the campus's low-carbon life can penetrate every detail of our work and life, allowing people to integrate with campus life while also providing comfortable living space and resources for future generations.

1.2.4 Renewability. Under the traditional campus lifestyle, the resources that are wasted every day on an efficient campus are amazing. The campus low-carbon life represents a healthier, more natural and safer lifestyle. It does not require lower quality of life and standards for teachers and students. It only requires teachers and students to establish a low-carbon concept. Start with and minimize the “carbon footprint”. The most critical aspect of low-carbon life on campus is the recycling of resources to promote resource reuse. Such as the recycling of domestic water, timely turn off the lights, the use of textbooks, the reuse of materials and textbooks, the greening of teaching supplies, etc., in order to reflect the renewable use of resources in the campus low-carbon life.

2 The necessity of energy saving and emission reduction in colleges and universities

2.1 Realizing the foundation of low-carbon life in college campuses

In the academic world, Wu Chu et al., through the investigation and study of Qishan Campus of Fuzhou University, showed that the students of Fuzhou University Qishan Campus lived in clothing, food, housing, transportation, use and entertainment, and the use of the school's infrastructure. There are serious irrational phenomena [3]. The author believes that it can be speculated that the situation of energy conservation and emission reduction in other local colleges and universities across the country is worrying. At the same time, through the collection of literature materials, it is found that the general problems of college campuses are mainly manifested in the following five aspects: First, the low utilization rate of school classrooms, serious waste of water and electricity; Second, the low recycling rate of students' teaching materials, lack of environmental awareness; It is a waste of material and printing. Fourth, the waste of water and electricity in the student dormitory is serious and the awareness of conservation is weak. Fifth, white garbage is concentrated and environmental awareness is lacking. Therefore, the energy saving and emission reduction work of college campus is the premise of realizing the low carbon life of college campus, and it is also the common pursuit of college teachers and students.

2.2 The need to spread the concept of low-carbon life

At present, the development of China's low-carbon economy is in its infancy. Although the concept of low carbon is recognized by most of the public in the society, there are still great resistances in the implementation of actual work and life. To this end, colleges and universities are the main front for Chinese education talents and a place to promote low-carbon life concepts. Therefore, the development of energy-saving and emission-reduction work in colleges and universities will help to optimize the resources of college campuses and guide students to practice the concept of low-carbon life from the side to better disseminate the concept of low-carbon life in society.

2.3 Building an Innovative Country's Guarantee

Since 2006, the Ministry of Education has issued important documents such as “Notice on Building a Saving Campus” and “Technical Guide for Economical Campus Construction and Management in Colleges and Universities” [4]. From the contents of the document, it is known that the energy conservation and emission reduction work of colleges and universities is a useful supplement to the creation of a low carbon economy. The author knows that the current popularization and promotion of low-carbon life in colleges and universities is an extremely important reality. In view of the current expansion speed of Chinese universities (number of colleges and universities, number of students in school, office facilities), the future development of the national economy The army is our young college students. They are the generations born in the education of low-carbon life. They will become the builders and disseminators of our country's environmental protection cause. Colleges and universities, as the main body of practicing low-carbon economy, are only in the school infrastructure. In order to better guide our students to practice the concept of low-carbon life, we must do a good job in energy conservation and emission reduction. As a result, colleges and universities have become China's current main force in building a low-carbon society against global climate change, and also a guarantee for building China into an innovative country.

2.4 Mission of People and Nature for Sustainable Development

The energy-saving emission reduction of college campuses is closely related to the development of colleges and universities, which determines that low-carbon life in colleges and universities is an important part of developing energy-saving emission reductions in colleges and universities. With the continued expansion of colleges and universities in China, the scale of colleges and universities is constantly expanding. The number of students in the school is also increasing. The energy consumption of school equipment has risen sharply. The consumption of energy has increased year by year. The unreasonable consumption accounts for a considerable proportion, which not only affects. The sustainable development of local colleges and universities seriously violates the concept of sustainable development of people and nature. Therefore, each of our teachers and students is well aware of the mission of protecting the environment and taking the path of sustainable development.

3 The lack of energy saving and emission reduction systems in colleges and universities

3.1 Convergence of energy conservation and emission reduction regulatory systems

In 2007, the “Implementation Opinions on Strengthening the Energy Conservation Management of Office Buildings and Large Public Buildings of State Organs” clearly stated that the implementation of the construction of energy-saving supervision systems for office buildings and large-scale public buildings in state organs is energy consumption monitoring, energy consumption statistics, and energy auditing. And energy efficiency publicity [5]. The construction content of the campus building energy conservation and emission reduction supervision system must comply with the four aspects of the "Implementation Opinions", that is, the campus building energy conservation and emission reduction supervision system includes energy consumption monitoring system, energy consumption statistics system, energy audit system and energy efficiency publicity system. . However, colleges and universities in the actual construction of energy-saving emission reduction supervision system pay more attention to energy consumption monitoring system, the campus energy-saving emission reduction system is equivalent to the energy consumption monitoring system, which is not conducive to the overall promotion of low-carbon energy consumption supervision system construction in colleges and universities, nor Conducive to the construction of a low-carbon life in a model college campus.

3.2 The management system for project construction and operation is not perfect

It is essential to establish effective and effective project implementation and management assurance systems and to implement them normally. In the implementation process of energy-saving and emission-reducing projects for college campus buildings, according to the requirements of project construction and operation and maintenance, it is necessary to establish a management system of four stages: planning and design, bidding and procurement, construction adjustment, and operation and maintenance. The management system for the construction and operation of campus projects is often not perfect, so that the campus energy conservation and emission reduction supervision is inefficient.

3.3 There are loopholes in the incentive and restraint mechanism for energy conservation and emission reduction.

As the main body of energy conservation and emission reduction, colleges and universities are difficult to play institutional constraints and incentive guarantees in the actual operation process, mainly because of the loopholes in the design of incentive and restraint mechanisms for energy conservation and emission reduction in colleges and universities. First of all, the powers and responsibilities of energy saving and emission reduction in colleges and universities are not clear. The government has no relevant incentive mechanism to promote the behavior of the main body. The school believes that energy conservation and emission reduction will increase operating costs in some aspects and will not receive corresponding compensation. Secondly, each school The department is treated with the attitude of coping with energy conservation and emission reduction. The departments with poor energy conservation and emission reduction work do not have certain binding force. Finally, as an important participant in energy conservation and emission reduction work, students have not played their due enthusiasm; therefore, colleges and universities There are loopholes in the incentives and constraints of campus energy conservation and emission reduction, resulting in the full implementation of energy saving and emission reduction work in colleges and universities.

3.4 Innovative research mechanism for energy saving and emission reduction is imperfect

The energy conservation and emission reduction work of colleges and universities should focus on the combination of practice and innovation. It is necessary to establish typical colleges and universities, and other universities should learn and innovate. At present, the country's first batch of energy-saving and emission reduction work demonstration colleges have been released (a total of 12), such as Zhejiang University [5]. The energy conservation and emission reduction work of other colleges and universities needs to be solved urgently. The key to campus energy conservation and emission reduction work is to establish a practical innovation mechanism to ensure that all commitments for energy conservation and emission reduction are implemented. Due to the differences in the scale of development among universities, the gap in the school-level energy conservation and emission reduction work has not been established. Most universities have not established innovative research mechanisms, or they are ineffective, and they have not implemented this work. The current situation of the colleges and universities in the energy saving and emission reduction work is not obvious.

3.5 The implementation of the low carbon life code of conduct system is not in place

In college campuses, there is a widespread phenomenon that college students cannot carry out low-carbon life to the end, which is inseparable from the school's management system. The comparison of the annual electricity consumption in the student dormitory area, the comparison of students participating in public welfare environmental activities, the waste of food by students, and the littering of white garbage have not been carried out. If universities do not make these behaviors specific and quantitative, each Departments and students don't know how to do it, why do they start? There is no clear reward and punishment system for poor departments and students. Therefore, the key to energy saving and emission reduction work in colleges and universities is to start with each teacher and student staff, formulate a corresponding low carbon life code of conduct system, and pay close attention to implementation issues.

4 Construction of University Campus Energy Saving and Emission Reduction System

4.1 Establish and improve the energy conservation and emission reduction supervision system

At present, to do a good job in the campus energy-saving emission reduction supervision system, we must first play its role in the school's various energy-saving goals; Second, the energy-saving body should form a system concept, to achieve the implementation, responsibility to people, to avoid misunderstanding; Establish and improve the campus energy conservation and emission reduction supervision system to ensure the smooth development of energy saving and emission reduction work in colleges and universities. The campus energy conservation and emission reduction supervision system mainly includes four aspects: energy consumption statistics system, energy audit system, energy consumption monitoring system and energy efficiency publicity system. Colleges and universities should distinguish the relationship between supervision system construction and energy consumption monitoring, energy consumption data collection and construction. Improve the energy conservation and emission reduction supervision system, and finally realize the ideal state of clear responsibility and management science in energy conservation and emission reduction work [6].

4.2 Rationally formulate the management system for project implementation and operation

Judging from the experience of 12 successful universities in the country, although different universities have different factors such as construction ability and scientific research ability, different universities have different project implementation and operation modes according to their own characteristics, but the unified deployment of the main body in universities Forming a reasonable project implementation and operation management system is the organizational guarantee for the smooth development of campus energy conservation and emission reduction projects. However, the phenomenon of unreasonable planning and design in the energy-saving and emission-reducing work of colleges and universities, the operation of bidding for black-box bidding, the unsatisfactory construction and commissioning, and the running and maintenance of the process are only corrected by rationally formulating the management system for project implementation and operation. In this way, we will ensure and guide the smooth development of the campus energy conservation and emission reduction supervision system project and achieve the expected results.

4.3 Establish an energy-saving emission reduction incentive system

The formation of a low-carbon lifestyle in colleges and universities is not only a question of the success or failure of campus energy conservation and emission reduction, but also a matter of personal morality. A fair system and policy have an important impact on people's behavior. In this fair system and policy, people can equally enjoy the consumption rights and bear corresponding responsibilities. However, due to the existence of regional economy in China There are also obvious differences between colleges and universities. The development of energy-saving and emission reduction work in colleges and universities urgently needs a fair incentive and restraint system. For universities in developed regions, they have more responsibilities than universities in underdeveloped regions, and they strongly support the energy-saving and emission-reduction investment of colleges and universities that started late. For some universities, they have both ability and poor performance in energy conservation and emission reduction. Relevant government departments must carry out corresponding punishments and restrictions. For the work done on campus energy conservation and emission reduction, the relevant government departments should commend and give appropriate rewards [7]. Therefore, the campus energy-saving emission reduction incentive system has been formed, and the campus low-carbon life can be realized as soon as possible.

4.4 Building an innovation system for energy conservation and emission reduction

Colleges and universities should act immediately, based on the existing school infrastructure, do research and research, develop and utilize new technologies for energy conservation and emission reduction, optimize limited teaching resources on campus, and continuously upgrade and transform energy conservation and emission reduction systems. The key is to build energy conservation in colleges and universities. Technology innovation mechanism in the field of emission reduction, focusing on improving energy utilization efficiency, new energy, renewable energy development, increasing investment in key technologies for energy conservation and emission reduction, promoting integration of production, education and research, setting up innovation funds in universities to ensure the development of new technologies in schools A breakthrough has been made. In this way, we can improve the campus living environment and create a typical demonstration of low-carbon life on campus.

4.5 Implementation of the campus low carbon life code of conduct system

The low-carbon life of college campus relies on the strong support of the government, and the active participation of teachers and students can be realized. First of all, we must establish the concept of energy conservation and emission reduction with the theme of “low carbon life, green campus”, guide and encourage teachers and students to participate in the protection of our common homeland, popularize resources and energy knowledge, and form a healthy, civilized and economical And green lifestyle, build a green harmonious campus; Secondly, build a low-carbon life behavior standard system for college campuses, further standardize the life behaviors of teachers and students, guide the teachers and students to develop every piece of paper, save every drop, Save every good habit of every degree of electricity, educate every student to master relevant energy-saving knowledge, learn and master scientific energy-saving methods, establish energy-saving awareness and social responsibility; finally, vigorously promote the low-carbon life behavior standards of college campuses, establish a model across the country, Learning together and discussing, according to the actual situation of each university to promote the campus low-carbon life code of conduct system, thus reaching the national colleges and universities to set off a love for home.

In short, as a big education country, China's enrollment in higher education has brought many "carbon problems" to the campus. Whether it is from the self-requirement of China's sustainable development of education, or from the perspective of national development, the Chinese government faces the challenge of “low-carbon politics” in the world. The idea of ​​propagating and promoting a low-carbon economy still needs to start from education. Therefore, it is of strategic significance to construct a college campus energy conservation and emission reduction system from the perspective of low carbon life.
