Meng, J., Huo, J., Zhang, Z. et al. The narrowing gap in developed and developing country emission intensities reduces global trade’s carbon leakage. Nat Commun
Objective:
- Estimate the effects of the global trade on global carbon emissions from 2004 to 2017
Case:
- Global countries
Methodology:
- Leontief matrix
- Decomposition
Data Source
- MRIO
- Carbon emission
Findings:
- South-north trade contributed to the increase in global emissions
- Global trade lowers total carbon emissions
- The biggest contributors to net emissions of trade were China and India
