Carbon emission is an important cause of ecological imbalance and environmental pollution. Environmental issues such as energy consumption and carbon emissions caused by rapid economic development are important content that must be controlled at present. Reducing energy consumption in daily life is one of the most important energy-saving measures in densely populated cities. This study analyzed the environmental attitude of Shanghai citizens and the life energy-saving strategies promoted by the local government and found that the fulfillment of energy-saving behavior in daily life depends on people’s awareness of ecological balance and the degree of energy crisis. At the same time, the study found that energy-saving through building energy conservation, public resources and control of living consumption to promote the balanced development of ecology. The implementation of building energy conservation, electricity conservation, control of living consumption and other energy conservation behavior are also important ways to save energy.
