“…EEIO analysis is already used within academia to quantify the environmental contributors to national economic sectors with a consumption-based approach. However, EEIO applications either focus on the consumption of final demand sectors (e.g., households, government) (Castellani et al, 2019;Cellura et al, 2011), or the impact of a whole economy typically without going into intersectoral details (Dawkins et al, 2019;Lenzen, 2007;Moran et al, 2018;Xia et al, 2022). Regarding applications to specific industrial sectors, the literature has so far mainly focused on food (Reutter et al, 2017) or tourism (Sun et al, 2020).…”

“…Global warming caused by excessive carbon emissions is exerting all-round impacts on human life and has become one of the most severe challenges facing the development of human society at present [1]. Recognized as an important anti-climate change strategy by the world community, carbon trading policy plays a crucial role in both the environmental governance and economic green transition and is being implemented in a growing number of countries [2].…”

Carbon allowance prices (CAP) directly reflect the overall movement of the carbon market, which is the core of the carbon market operation and an important perspective for studying the carbon market. Based on the threshold model and regime switching model, through studying the performance of CAP in China's carbon market, the paper has the following conclusions. First, CAP show significant non-linear structure and three operating intervals of high, medium, and low, with most of the time being active in the medium and low intervals. Second, there is a stabilization mechanism in the current operation of CAP, which can adequately regulate the trend of CAP fluctuations and eventually converge back to the normal state. Finally, it is found that moderate increases are the main form of CAP volatility in China's carbon market, but other possible states and the risk of abnormal CAP volatility due to state transformation still exist. Furthermore, for investors, China's carbon market may be an ideal place to make long-term investments and hedge risks in the future. This paper provides theoretical support for investors and regulators in the carbon market to make scientific decisions based on the carbon market.

“…The Chinese government has made reducing carbon emissions from the TH industries an important goal and has been vigorously promoting relevant policies for many years. 8 Since the 13th and 14th 5-year plans in 2020, China has been focusing on the TH industries and has repeatedly mentioned the need to control the carbon emissions of the TH industries before the formal introduction of the dualcarbon target. In April of the same year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology also issued a guideline to strengthen carbon emission control in the TH industries.…”

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.
