“…This may be due to the inclusion of the spatial lag term in the SDM model, which ignores the feedback between adjacent regions and the bias of the point estimate. Therefore, the effect of the explanatory variable on the explained variable cannot be simply characterized by the above regression coefficient (Li and Song, 2022). This kind of effect needs to be decomposed into direct and indirect effects.…”

Carbon emissions based on land use change have attracted extensive attention from scholars, but the current land use carbon emission accounting model is still relatively rough. Despite the continuous promotion of China’s ecological civilization strategy, whether green economic development promotes carbon emission reduction remains to be studied. This study uses the Exploratory Spatial-temporal Data Analysis (ESTDA) framework system to revise the land-use carbon emission accounting model; it integrates the NDVI adjustment index and systematically analyzes the spatial and temporal patterns and evolutionary path characteristics of carbon emissions from 2000 to 2020 for 130 prefecture-level cities in the eastern coastal region of China, a high carbon emission region. The spatial econometric model is further used to explore the impact of green economy development on carbon emissions. The results show that the spatial distribution of carbon sources and sinks in the eastern coastal cities demonstrates a year-on-year increase during the study period. The spatial distribution of carbon sources is higher in the north than in the south, and the economically developed regions are more elevated than less developed economic areas. Net carbon emissions show prominent spatial clustering characteristics. The south has a more stable internal spatial structure than the north, and the inland has a more stable internal spatial structure than the coast. Green economic development can significantly reduce carbon emission intensity and has a significant spatial spillover effect. The findings imply that policy-makers need to consider the spatial and temporal distribution and spatial correlation of carbon emissions among cities; they can achieve carbon emission reduction by formulating a more reasonable green economy development approach and implementing regional linkages.

“…32 However, the means to improve the environment through taxation are more common. 33 For example, setting carbon tax, 8 fuel tax, 33 coal resource tax, 34 iron ore resource tax, 35 etc. Compared to carbon trading policies, taxation policies are easier to implement.…”

“…From a comparative policy perspective, scholars compare the effects of different policies implemented separately. For instance, they have compared the impact of the carbon tax and fuel tax policies, 33 the respective advantages and disadvantages of the carbon tax and resource tax. 15 From a combined policy perspective, scholars study the policy effects of two or more policies implemented simultaneously.…”

How to promote China's green economic development? The combination effects of consumption tax and carbon tax policies

With massive greenhouse gas emissions causing global warming, emissions reduction and economic growth are essential objectives that must be balanced in sustainable development worldwide. The tax policy is an effective tool for environmental protection and economic regulation. Over the years, China has continuously adjusted tax policies, and the tax structure has tended to be optimized, but there is still no carbon tax. In this regard, based on the purpose of promoting the harmonious development of the environment and economy, this article builds a dynamic computable general equilibrium (CGE) model with five scenarios to assess the economic, energy, and environmental effects of the consumption tax, the carbon tax as well as their combination in China during 2022 to 2035. The results show that lowering the consumption tax on non-energy-intensive commodities boosts long-term economic growth but is not conducive to emissions reduction. Additionally, a separate carbon tax promotes a cleaner energy transition, reducing emissions while harming the economy. In contrast to the stand-alone policy treatment, the combination of lower consumption taxes on non-energy-intensive commodities with the medium carbon tax rate could have a “double dividend” effect, with long-term economic growth and consistently reduced pollution emissions. In the future, it will be essential to implement the appropriate policy combination to reduce fossil energy consumption and increase clean energy share. Thus, it would help to achieve China's 2030 peak carbon target and promote green economic development effectively.

“…Studies show that the aviation fuel tax applied in Japan has reduced CO 2 emissions [39]. On the other hand, after the tax cut between 2004 and 2013, fuel consumption increased by 246 million gallons in Japan, which caused 2.4 million metric tons of CO 2 emissions.…”

Global commercial aviation policies in the context of the climate crisis and an analysis of these approaches from the perspective of Türkiye

The climate crisis is becoming more visible day by day and is affecting the ecological system more and more. However, despite such a visible threat and its severe effects, efforts at the national and international levels are far from tackling the climate crisis. Especially with its rapid growth and ever-increasing emission rates, the commercial aviation sector remains inadequate in combating the climate crisis. This study discusses the struggles of the global commercial aviation sector in terms of the climate crisis and the reflections of this combat on the Turkish commercial aviation sector. As a result, both international and domestic commercial aviation sectors follow an unrealistic attitude in the fight against the climate crisis, and there is still a long way to go.
