| Abstract | This research uses a new input-output model and the net export-domestic consumption ratio to study CO2 emissions embodied in international trade in China and whether developed countries transfer the pollution industries to China. The study found: (1) China export bring about 1/4～1/3 of CO2 emissions embodied in China production and China import fulfil 1/5～1/4 of CO2 emissions embodied in China consumption. (2) The CO2 emissions embodied in China export rose by 100%, while those in China import rose by 80%. (3) China has had a great deal of CO2 emissions for foreign countries, the proportion of CO2 emissions embodied in net export of China production increasing gradually. (4) The developed countries have transferred both the pollution industries and the clean industries to China, while China have transferred only the clean industries to the developed countries. Therefore, China may have become Pollution Industry Haven of developed countries by international trade. |
