In high-end geography, “cool economy” is typically a characteristic economic model that is developed on the basis of cold and cold climate resources (e. G. High altitude, high latitude, low temperature, etc.)。
I. Content of the cold economy
Definitions: the economic model of agriculture, tourism, energy, etc., is developed using climatic characteristics in areas with low annual temperatures, short frost-free periods and high temperatures。
Core: transforming climate “disadvantaging” into resource “advantages”, driving the regionSustainable developmentI don't know。
Ii. Main types of cold economy
Cold agriculture
(1) crop cultivation
1 cold-resistant crops: potatoes, cyanide, oats, oatmeal, quinoa, etc。
2 cold vegetables: broccoli, kale, carrots (e. G. “worst season vegetables” in the habei dam)。
3 high-value-added crops: chinese medicine (e. G., return, party participation), flowers (e. G., yunnan mountains, dunes)。
(2) advantages: few pests and pests, high quality (high day and night temperature, favourable to accumulation of sugar), late-season listing (filling market vacancies)。
(3) typical cases
Qinghai and tibet develop organic agriculture in the highlands
The netherlands overcomes cold climates through greenhouse technologies and develops efficient agriculture。
2.Ice tourismAnd the ice industry
(1) ice tourism: ski resorts (e. G. Able heilong river), ice sculptor festivals (harbin ice world), auroral sightseeing (norden, canada)。
(2) ice and snow movement: winter olympics drive ice and snow equipment manufacturing, racing economy (e. G. Hebei zhui)。
(3) cultural experience: winter folklore in the north (e. G. “winter catch” in the northeast)。
3. Clean energy development
(1) wind energy: the high latitudes are rich in wind resources (e. G. The inner mongolia highlands wind power base)。
(2) hydraulic energy: high mountain ice-melted water provides hydropower (e. G., the tibetan plateau)。
(3) geothermal energy: geothermal heating and power generation in iceland and hokkaido, japan。
4. Special industries
(1) data centres: low temperature environments contribute to dissipation and reduce energy consumption (e. G. Data centres in norway, sweden)。
(2) biomedicine: a low-temperature environment suitable for the storage of vaccines, biological agents。
Iii. Seat conditions for cold economic development
Natural conditions
(1) cold weather, abundant light and high temperature differentials between day and night
(ii) clean ecosystems (reduced pollution, suitable for organic agriculture)
(3) natural resources such as ice and snow resources and wind energy are abundant。
2. Socio-economic conditions
(1) market demand (e. G. Consumption of anti-season vegetables, ice tourism)
(2) improved transport (cold chain logistics, highways)
(3) policy support (e. G. The arctic south show programme to promote ice and snow campaigns)。
Analysis of typical cases
Case 1: yunnan li river cold vegetable base
(1) conditions: highland climate (summer cool), adequate sunlight, pure water quality。
(2) model: high-value crops, such as broccoli, cedar, are grown and sold to the eastern coast through cold chain logistics。
(3) meaning: promote farmers ' income generation and rural renewal。
Case 2: nordic ice economy
(1) characteristics: winter tourism (aurculous, skiing), ice-sporting industry (equipment manufacturing), renewable energy (wind power, geothermal)。
(2) experience: industrial diversification, focusing on the integration of environment and science and technology。
V. Challenges and responses
1. Challenges
(1) climate risk (low-temperature freezing, snow)
(2) ecological vulnerability (overexploitation can lead to vegetation destruction, soil erosion)
(3) inadequate infrastructure (in remote areas, weak electricity)。
Response
(i) technology support (greenhouses, cold-resistant breeds)
(2) ecological protection (limitation of overgrazing, development of ecotourism)
(3) policy support (investment, branding)。
Vi. Orientation of high-level questions
1. Analysis of locational conditions (natural + socio-economic) of the cold economy in a given area。
2. Evaluate the ecological and economic significance of cold economies (e. G. Poverty reduction, environmental protection)。
3. Design sustainable development measures for cold areas (technology, policy, industrial integration)。
4. Comparing differences in cold economic patterns in different regions (e. G., north-east of the tibetan highlands). (1) example of response: “analysis of the favorable conditions in the development of cold and cold agriculture in the tibetan plateau”
(2) points of response:
1 climate: the highlands are cold, with strong light and high temperatures, which contribute to organic accumulation
2 environment: low pollution, clean water quality, suitable for green agricultural production
3. Policies: the government supports highland niche agriculture and improves cold chain logistics
4 market: eastern cities are in high demand for vegetables and chinese medicine。
