Abstract：Based on the panel data of 285 cities from 2003 to 2018, the difference in difference models were used to investigate the impact of China's Sustainable Development Plan of National Resource-Based Cities (2013~2020) (here in after referred to as the Plan) on carbon emissions and the effect of the Plan on carbon emissions through the path of resource dependence. In addition, the heterogeneous effects of the Plan on carbon emissions through the path of resource dependence were analyzed based on the perspectives of city region and city scale. Finally, the Plan's spatial spillover effects were examined. The results suggested that the Plan significantly reduced carbon emissions of resource-based cities. The mechanism analysis indicated that the Plan can decrease carbon emissions by reducing the degree of resource dependence. Besides, industrial structure upgrade and technological progress had positive impacts on the Plan's carbon reduction effect. The heterogeneous analysis showed that the effect of the Plan decreased resource dependence to reduce carbon emissions is more obvious in eastern regions, central regions, and large cities. The Plan had a significant carbon reduction effect on local and neighboring areas. This paper had important policy implications for achieving sustainable development of resource-based cities in China under the dual carbon target.
