THE GLOBAL IMPACT OF INTERNATIONAL TRADE ON EMBODIED CARBON EMISSSIONS: EVIDENCE FROM AN INPUT-OUTPUT ANALYSIS

摘要

The international trade can help to reduce some of the unnecessary carbon dioxide emissions, to a certain extent, the disappearance of international trade reshapes the current global emission pattern. Major emitters would undergo great changes in the absolute amount of emissions, while slight changes in the change ratios..While minor emission countries react inversely.The assumption of inter-national trade closure will directly result in a violent decline in service need in global transportation, accounting for 98.7% of the total emission reductions.The main emission increase derives from the production of energy products produced locally in order to compensate for the import supply gap. The increase in emissions from the energy products sector accounts for 71.1% of the total increase in growing sectors.
