Mercury emissions embodied in Beijing economy
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2016Abstract Atmospheric mercury pollution is a severe threat to both environment and human health. For Beijing economy 2012, this paper compiles an exhaustive inventory for direct mercury emissions and performs an input–output analysis for indirect mercury emission connections. It's estimated that Beijing's direct atmospheric mercury emissions were 2.62

The United Nation (UN) projects that 2.5 billion more people will live in cities by 2050, up from 4.4 billion today. Of the growing global population, most will come from the urban areas of low- and middle-income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, with Sub-Saharan African cities currently already seeing a 4.1 percent growth in population ...

Estimation of embodied CO2 emissions by general equilibrium model
European Journal of Operational Research, 2000Abstract This study estimates the extent to which embodied CO2 emissions are increased or reduced when a socioeconomic structural change occurs. Embodied CO2 emissions were estimated by Input–Output models (I–O models) and a General Equilibrium model (GE model), and the respective results were compared.

Mapping Flows of Embodied Emissions in the Global Production System
Environmental Science & Technology, 2011Environmentally extended multiregional input-output (MRIO) analysis can be used to investigate final production and consumption attributions of emissions. As the distinction between the two attributions has been brought to the attention of policy-makers, there is an ever greater need to understand how and why they differ, by analyzing the connections ...

Drivers of Global Methane Emissions Embodied in International Beef Trade
Environmental Science & Technology, 2022Increasing worldwide demand for beef products promotes international beef trade. Cattle raising and beef products as significant sources of methane (CH4) emissions have received widespread concerns. However, the factors driving CH4 emissions embodied in the global beef trade have not been quantified.

ACM SIGEnergy Energy Informatics Review
In a recent column, I wrote about understanding embodied emissions in terms of how they are measured and accounted for based on the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG) [1]. In this column, I will discuss how embodied emissions can be optimized and research challenges that our community can address. First, a quick recap.

Carbon Emissions Embodied in the International Trade of China
Advanced Materials Research, 2010This 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.

Literature on Emissions Embodied in Trade
2015This chapter critically reviews the findings of the “literature on emissions embodied in trade” on the desirability and consequences of adopting consumption-based approaches in international climate policy. This literature strand has established that emissions transfers via international trade from emerging to industrialized countries are large and ...

Embodied Energy and Carbon Emissions of Pavements: A Review
2019Energy 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.
