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.

Emission reduction effect and transmission mechanism of carbon tax from the perspective of embodied carbon emissions

Journal of Environmental Management
While carbon tax is widely recognized as a critical policy for addressing climate change, its effectiveness in curbing emissions through demand-side adjustments remains debated. This study investigates its potential to reduce emissions from the perspective of embodied emissions in final consumption, innovatively constructing an extended general ...

Contextualizing embodied carbon emissions of concrete using mixture design parameters and performance metrics

Structural Concrete, 2022
Multiple initiatives advocate for reducing embodied carbon (i.e., greenhouse gas emissions) associated with concrete production. Even though readily implementable strategies exist, practitioners are concerned that reducing embodied carbon emissions may ...

Statistical analysis of embodied carbon emission for building construction

Energy and Buildings, 2015
Abstract Buildings are significant contributors to the greenhouse effect through emission of considerable carbon dioxide during their life cycle. Life cycle carbon resulting from buildings consists of two components: operational carbon (OC) and embodied carbon (EC).

Export trade, embodied carbon emissions, and environmental pollution: An empirical analysis of China's high- and new-technology industries.

Journal of Environmental Management, 2020
China's export trade has been expanding steadily in recent years, significantly increasing resource consumption and environmental pollution. High- and new-technology industries are essential for achieving sustainable economic development and improving ...

Comparison and sensitivity analysis of embodied carbon emissions and costs associated with rural house construction in China to identify sustainable structural forms

, 2021
Sustainable development is crucial to rural regions in China. Although previous studies have investigated the carbon emissions and costs of single-family and rural houses, relatively few studies have compared the characteristics of different structural ...

How GVC division affects embodied carbon emissions in China’s exports?

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2020
With the rapid growth of China's foreign trade scale, the embodied carbon emissions in China's exports show a significant upward trend, which has been experiencing a considerable increase of researchers' attention. This study attempts to measure the embodied carbon emissions in China's exports from 1995 to 2011 based on the MRIO model and WIOD data ...

Carbon emissions embodied in Russia's trade

2015
According to current international climate change regime countries are responsible for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which result from economic activities within national borders, including emissions from producing goods for exports. At the same time imports of carbon intensive goods are not regulated by international agreements.
