Border carbon adjustments: Addressing emissions embodied in trade [PDF]
Energy Policy, 2016 Approximately one fourth of global emissions are embodied in international trade and a significant portion flows from non-carbon-priced to carbon-priced economies. Border carbon adjustments (BCAs) figure prominently as instruments to address concerns arising from unilateral climate policy.

Carbon emissions embodied in value added chains in China [PDF]
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2015 Abstract The literature on carbon leakage and embodied carbon in regional trade is extensive. However, many studies are primarily concerned with emissions embodied in demand-supply chains and ignore the issue of carbon transfer behind the value-added chains. We promote a model to calculate value-based emissions (VBEs) and carbon emissions embodied in

Embodied energy and carbon emissions of building materials in China
Building and Environment, 2022 Abstract Increasing building constructions have become one of the fastest-growing drivers of carbon emissions. Energy conservation and carbon reduction in buildings have become increasingly crucial in the context of global carbon neutrality. This paper assesses the annual total energy and carbon embodied in the ten most intensively used building ...

Shared Responsibility for Carbon Emission Based on Embodied Carbon Emission in China-US Trade
, 2021 Abstract Traditional Production-Based Accounting (PBA) principle does not consider the embodied carbon emissions in export and import trade. A multiregional input-output (MRIO) model is constructed to estimate the embodied carbon dioxide emissions of 41 countries and regions worldwide, based on the PBA and shared responsibility approach in this
