“…Zhang et al explored the impact of consumer environmental awareness on order quantities and channel coordination with traditional market and green market [5]. Zhang and Zhang studied the optimal subsidy and tax policies and firms' product selection (generic, green, or both), plus quality and pricing decisions [32]. Basiri and Heydari investigated the optimal retailer's sales efforts and green quality and channel coordination issue within a twostage supply chain [33].…”

In this paper, we study how the manufacturer balances the investment between the green product and the ordinary product as consumer environmental awareness (CEA) increases. e green product and ordinary product have a basic commonality traditional quality but difference between the premium environmental quality and premium traditional quality. With the cost constraint, we present manufacturer's optimal strategy: producing one product or two products and the optimal traditional quality of the ordinary product or the optimal environmental quality of the green product. en, we further study the effect of government subsidy and tax on manufacturer's strategies and analyze the effectiveness of the policies. Finally, we give some numerical examples and sensitivity analysis. e main findings are as follows: (1) manufacturer's cost constraint affects product's optimal quality but may not influence manufacturer's optimal product strategy: the manufacturer may not produce two products even through the budget is sufficient large; (2) the government policy could induce the manufacturer to invest green product but may be inefficient; the subsidy and tax policies are mutual exclusion; and either subsidy or tax could play a role in changing manufacturer's strategy. Some management insights are given.

“…Xu and Xie (2016) deeply research into the difference of supply chain system in economic benefits, environmental protection and social benefits [6]. Zhang et al (2017) investigate the government's optimal subsidy and tax policies in response to consumer environmental awareness (CEA) and the manufacturers' product selection (generic, green or both) plus quality and pricing decisions [7]. However, above literature did not consider the carbon quota allocation and most of the studies did not explore the manufacturers competition.…”

With environment quality decreases, consumer's environmental awareness (CEA) increases and more and more manufacturers are willing to produce the product with low carbon emission. At the same time, government employs the carbon quota to stimulate the manufacturer to produce green product. This paper studies how CEA and carbon quota affect the carbon emission rates and prices of the products when there are two competitive manufacturers. We give the explicit expressions of the optimal carbon emission rates and prices and analyze the impact of the size of the manufacturer, the sensitivity of switchovers toward price and CEA. We find that (1) the optimal emission reduction rates increase with CEA and prices but decrease with the emission reduction cost coefficient; (2) manufacturers' profits increase with the increase of the sensitivity of switchovers toward price, CEA and the total carbon quota; (3) manufacturers' retail prices, emission reduction rates and profits are equal when the manufacturers' size are the same; When the sizes of two manufacturers are different, the larger the size of the manufacturer, the greater the profit.
