On the afternoon of May 12, the 639th "Hong" Academic Lecture, organized by the Graduate School and the Graduate Work Department, hosted by the School of Architecture, and co-organized by the University Graduate Science and Technology Association, was successfully held at the Bosheng Lecture Hall of the East Campus of the South Campus. Professor Sun Lu from Xi'an Jiaotong University delivered a report titled "Research on Synergistic Development Paths for Pollution Reduction and Carbon Mitigation in Urban-Industrial Composite Ecosystem." The lecture was chaired by Associate Professor Wu Yan from the School of Architecture, with a total of 100 faculty members and students from related colleges in attendance.
Professor Sun Lu's report primarily focused on four aspects: research background, analysis of industrial ecosystems and residential (architectural) systems, analysis of pathways for urban carbon peaking and achieving climate change response goals, and a research summary. First, Professor Sun Lu elaborated on the current urban problems caused by climate change and explained the theory of urban composite ecosystems, as well as knowledge related to low-carbon cities and urban material-energy metabolism. Subsequently, he detailed the current research trends in industrial ecosystems and architectural systems, as well as urban carbon peaking under different development scenarios, the outline for climate-resilient city construction, recommendations for urban climate environment planning, and the formulation of planning and renovation strategies. He also proposed development suggestions and models for climate-resilient cities. Finally, Professor Sun Lu summarized the research and offered the advice of "broad observation and selective acquisition, deep accumulation and sudden breakthrough" for further study.
