we use GVC participation as a proxy of trade liberalization to examine its effects on emission intensity. We distinguish between forward and backward GVC participation because they reflect two different ways of participating in GVCs. Therefore, they may have different effects on the emission intensity ...

Hence, China’s total CO2 emissions gradually increase during the first two growth stages through open-market gains (2002–2007) and stimulus-policy effects (2007–2012). Among the noteworthy drivers mentioned above, the last stage shows a major contribution to emission reductions by shifting to ...
The ocean is the largest active carbon pool on Earth, acting as the key regulator to global climate change, and thus has great potential for carbon negative emission.2,3 Recent research demonstrates that the ocean has already absorbed approximately 28% of anthropogenic CO2 since the Industrial ...

The green premium is defined as the difference in cost between clean (zero carbon emission) energy and fossil energy for a certain economic activity. A negative green premium indicates that the cost of fossil energy is higher than that of clean energy – an incentive to switch to clean energy...
Thirdly, the effects of urbanisation on CEE in Western China present a U-shaped relationship, meaning that the influence of urbanisation on CEE had a trend of initial inhibition and then stimulation. At present, the urbanisation process shows negative impacts on CEE, while the tipping point has ...
Industrial structure upgrading has a significant negative effect on carbon emissions. The carbon emission reduction effects of FDI and average years of education show a strengthening trend over time; Influence mechanism analysis shows that both the quality and quantity of R&D activities reduce carbon ...
But it’s expensive, and until the cost of releasing carbon into the air rises, there’s little economic incentive to use it. People tend to vegetables growing in a field as emission rises from cooling towers at a coal-fired power station in Tongling, Anhui province, China, on Wednesday,...
This means that individuals and companies must pay the state a17,660 pesossurcharge (about 4.7 dollars) for each ton of carbon dioxide emitted, as compensation for this environmental footprint. That money is then used for programs mitigating climate change or counteracting its...
