Abstract

Currently, countries around the world are facing the dual pressures and challenges of environmental issues and economic growth, and the synergistic development of digitalization and greenization is an important key to solving this challenge. The synergistic development of digitalization and greenization is reflected in multiple aspects such as the economy, environment, and society, which not only promotes sustainable development but also plays an important role and significance in enhancing economic efficiency, improving ecological environment quality, and meeting people’s needs for a better life. This paper constructs a comprehensive evaluation index system for the development level of digitalization and greenization, conducts an in-depth analysis of digitalization, greenization, and their synergistic development in Eastern and Central China, and provides useful enlightenment for promoting the synergistic development of digitalization and greenization.
