Abstract :
Today, activities in cities such as household fuels and transportation, poor waste management of urban waste have all directly and indirectly led to an increase in greenhouse gas emissions and have had many adverse effects on climate change; Therefore, it is necessary to examine factors affecting this important issue and to moderate its adverse effects. Thus, first, by combining the SWOT and FTOPSIS models, the superiority of the weaknesses in the internal environment and the threats in the external environment were determined. Then, using the COPRAS model and using a questionnaire including 6 components and 30 indicators, the most important components affecting the realization of low carbon urban development were investigated. In the next phase, by examining the quality of communication structure and the impact of strategic planning strategies of low carbon city on the realization of its components in Sanandaj city by using modeling of structural equations in the form of Amos Graphic software, the "role of strategic planning for the development of the low-carbon city and its implementation in the city of Sanandaj" was examined. The results show that component of low carbon urban development has the highest score, and based on architecture of the communication structure, strategic planning of low carbon city through its four explanatory strategies has a positive and significant impact on the implementation of low carbon city, in the form of 6 components. This is based on the weighted regression obtained equal to 0.486. The results indicate that the formulation of detailed and strategic strategies for a low carbon city can be instrumental in achieving a sustainable low carbon city in the form of a low-carbon environment, low carbon economy, low carbon transportation, low carbon urban development and planning.
