“…The selection of appropriate influencing factors is the foundation for establishing carbon emission prediction models. The current research mostly considers factors such as population size, economic scale, energy structure, energy intensity, industrial structure, and urbanization level to establish carbon emission prediction models, including carbon emission assessments globally across six continents (Europe, North America, South America, Asia, Africa, and Oceania) [4] 2 of 19 and in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region [5], as well as Guangdong Province [6]. Meanwhile, the land use change rate, forest protection situation, biomass energy utilization efficiency, transportation mode, and renewable energy utilization rate were taken into account for Brazil's carbon emissions by Pedreira [7].…”
