Climate change is one of the most serious challenges of human beings in this century,and developing low carbon economy provides new opportunities for addressing climate change.As a major component of a low carbon economy,low carbon city development has aroused a high degree of enthusiasm in China,whilst it have blindness and disorder;thus cities need to explore appropriate development patterns in accordance with their features.Based on a review on international and domestic practice of low carbon city construction,this article concludes four kinds of development patterns in practice of low carbon cities,including synthesized "low carbon society" as a target model,and three transitional patterns: low-carbon industry as driving force,"low-carbon supporting industry",and"point to surface"as the model.China needs to explore a low carbon transition path in the process of industrialization,and the construction of low-carbon city should focus on economic structural adjustment in line with the principle of development in priority and explore new economic growth points. A low carbon demonstration area could help city to get experience no matler what,while low carbon industry as driving force and low-carbon to supporting industry patterns should be choosen according to local conditions.However,transitional patterns are adopted,cities should focus on the spreading of low carbon ideas and accomplish the target of a low carbon society with a long-term strategic vision and a reasonable comprehensive urban planning.
