Embodied Carbon Emissions of Buildings and How to Tame Them

open access: yesOne Earth, 2023
Building construction and operations are pivotal in climate mitigation efforts. While emissions from building operations can be easily reduced through renewable energy adoption and improved energy efficiency, the so-called “embodied” greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, also called “embodied carbon,” associated with building material production and ...

Carbon Emission Efficiency of China’s Industry Sectors: From the Perspective of Embodied Carbon Emissions

Journal of Cleaner Production, 2021
Abstract Carbon emission efficiency directly determines the overall carbon emissions level. Previous studies mainly investigated carbon emission efficiency from the perspective of direct carbon emissions without considering carbon emissions associated with intermediate production and consumption, resulting in deviations in the measurement results of ...

Carbon Emissions Embodied in the International Trade of China

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Research, 2010
This paper used input-output table and the energy consumption data by sector to estimate the effect of international trade on carbon emissions of China in 2007. The result shows that international trade has played a great part in increasing China’s carbon emissions.

Regional Embodied Carbon Emissions and Their Transfer Characteristics in China

Structural Change and Economic Dynamics, 2018
Abstract Estimating embodied carbon emissions (ECEs) in inter-regional trade and uncovering their transfer characteristics are of great significance to the efficient allocation of regional carbon responsibilities. With a multi-regional input-output (MRIO) model, this study first estimated the China’s regional ECEs during 2002–2012, and then ...

Factors Affecting Carbon Dioxide Emissions Embodied in Trade

2023
This paper examines the impact of environmental regulation in exporter and importer economies on crossborder carbon flows. While stricter environmental regulations help reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from domestic production, leading to lower CO2 emissions embodied in exports, stricter regulations on the importing side lead to higher CO2 ...

Estimating the embodied carbon emissions from the material content

Energy Conversion and Management, 1997
The embodied carbon emissions includes the direct and indirect carbon emitted for the entire production process. These values are needed to estimate impacts on carbon emissions due to changes in consumption patterns. We have developed a model of the economic system to account for every production process.

China’s inter-regional embodied carbon emissions: An industrial transfer perspective

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021
In the context of internal circulation, domestic trade is widely encouraged in China. However, the growth of inter-provincial trade may aggravate inter-regional embodied carbon emissions transfer. The knowledge about the causes of changes in embodied carbon emissions from an industry transfer perspective is limited, which is significant for achieving ...

The Net Flow of Carbon Emissions Embodied in Trade of China

Journal of Resources and Ecology, 2015
Abstract Based on the most current GTAP8 database, we analyzed flow, structure and change in trade-embodied carbon emissions between China and the developed world and the developing world from 2004 to 2007 using input-output model. We found that China was always a net embodied emissions exporting country over this period.

Assessing carbon emissions embodied in international trade based on shared responsibility

Journal of the Japanese and International Economies, 2022
We explore the carbon emissions of the world’s five highest carbon emitters by applying the shared responsibility (SR) criterion, under which both producers and consumers share the responsibility for emissions. Using the SR method based on the value-added approach, we can investigate carbon emissions at both national and sectoral levels.

Embodied Energy and Carbon Emissions of Pavements: A Review

2019
Energy consumption takes place at each stage of pavement construction, right from extraction of raw materials to finished products like roads. Carbon emission is an undesirable product that materializes simultaneously with energy consumption that is indispensable right through the construction activities.
