Analysis on Carbon Emission Situation of Chinese Export Industry Based on Input-Output Model

Low carbon economy development undoubtedly becomes the main trend of social development in future under the background of the global climate change and the increasing international pressure to reduce emissions. However, the international trade, as part of the global economy, will be carried out in accordance with the rules of low carbon economy. Therefore, it has important significance to study the relation between the carbon emission and export trade and deeply excavate carbon reduction potential of Chinese industry production for finding way to reduce carbon emission in China and striving for the carbon emission reduction space from the international. This paper constructed the input-output model to calculate the CO2 emission density of Chinese export industry according to the input-output theory, and then basically analyzed the situation of carbon emission of export industry.
