Responding to climate change has become a severe challenge faced by human society, and the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions has gradually become a common action by all countries. Therefore, analyzing carbon emissions through scientific methods has become an important foundation for responding to the national \"dual carbon\" strategy. This study used provincial-level carbon emission statistics, combined with nighttime light data and population data, and assigned carbon emissions to the grid scale. It also analyzed the temporal and spatial characteristics and evolution characteristics of carbon emissions in China in 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2018, as well as the correlation between carbon emissions and the economy. The results showed that:① from 2000 to 2018, the total CO<sub>2</sub> emissions in China continued to grow, but the growth rate slowed over time. The average annual growth rate of carbon emissions dropped from 9.9% in 2000-2010 to 7.4% in 2010-2018. From the perspective of spatial distribution, carbon-free areas were mainly distributed in the northwest uninhabited area and northeast forest and mountainous areas, low-carbon emissions were mainly distributed in the vast small and medium-sized cities and towns, and high-carbon emissions were concentrated in northern, central, eastern coastal, and western provincial capitals and urban agglomerations. ② Carbon emissions had high-value or low-value agglomerations at prefecture-level cities; this agglomeration tended to stabilize as a whole and had strengthened after 2005. Low-low agglomeration areas were mainly distributed in the western contiguous areas and Hainan Island. With economic and social development, low-low agglomeration areas began to fragment and reduce in size; high-high agglomeration areas were mainly distributed in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei urban agglomeration, Taiyuan urban agglomeration, Yangtze River Delta urban agglomerations, and Pearl River Delta urban agglomerations, and the scale was gradually strengthened and consolidated; high-low and low-high agglomeration areas mainly appeared in neighboring cities with large differences in economic development levels. ③ Carbon emissions in most parts of China were relatively stable. The areas where carbon emissions had changed were mainly distributed in the peripheral areas of provincial capitals and key cities, and there was a circle structure with no changes in the central urban area and changes in carbon emissions in the peripheral areas. ④ The overall process of urban development in China from 2000 to 2018 followed a shift from \"low emission-low income\" to \"high emission-low income\" to \"high emission-high income\" and finally to \"low emission-high income.\" The growth rate of carbon emissions in China is slowing down.

Fugitive emissions include equipment leaks, venting, and flaring and involve exploration, production, transportation, storage, and distribution of oil and gas resources.

Phosphorus (P) and zinc (Zn), as essential nutrient elements of plants, have been shown to have important impacts on cadmium (Cd) accumulation in crops through interactions with each other. However, the function of the simultaneous interaction of P, Zn, and Cd on vegetable growth and Cd accumulation remains unclear. Herein, using a single-factor level design with two alternating fixed factors, pot experiments were conducted to study the impact and mechanism of this simultaneous interaction at different levels of P, Zn, and Cd on <i>Brassica campestris</i> L. growth, antioxidant enzyme activity, and Zn and Cd accumulation with neutral purple soil as the substrate. The results showed that the addition of an appropriate amount of P and Zn could promote the growth of <i>Brassica campestris</i> L. and inhibit its Cd accumulation, through different mechanisms. P mainly reduced the Cd availability in soil and improved the crop resistance, whereas Zn mainly promoted the dilution effect by the crop growth and its physiological antagonism. The antioxidant capacity of <i>Brassica campestris</i> L. was significantly inhibited when 1 mg·kg<sup>-1</sup> exogenous Cd was added to the soil, along with decreased activities of CAT and POD and high accumulation of MDA. Notably, both P and Zn could improve the antioxidant capacity and relieve Cd toxicity by increasing CAT activity, without obviously influencing POD activity. The highest yield of <i>Brassica campestris</i> L.

In addition, the accumulation of Cd was further decreased when the proportion of P and Zn was increased, along with a decreased yield of the vegetable.
