Carbon emissions have been recognized as the greatest known contributor to global climate change, and the goal of carbon neutrality has been proposed in an effort to slow global warming. Urban spatial planning is an important tool for the construction of national spatial governance systems and ecological civilizations. Therefore, carbon-neutral city construction can make use of urban spatial planning, integrate low-carbon planning concepts and carbon emission control measures into the planning, accurately identify and manage energy carbon emission projects, promote urban production and life carbon peaks, and increase "green carbon sink" and "blue carbon sink". The aim of this reprint is to immerse the readers in the latest urban planning pathways to carbon neutrality.
