Abstract:

The accounting of embodied emission in domestic interregional trade has gradually become a hot topic in academic research under the background of closer regional interaction and increasing interregional trade. This paper first compares two accounting methods of embodied emission, including the method of Emissions Embodied in Bilateral Trade (EEBT) and the method of Multi-regional Input Output analysis (MRIO). It empirically analyzes the embodied SO2 in interprovincial trade among 30 provinces in China in 2002 and 2007. Calculations show that the results of EEBT method are larger by 18.87%～32.88% than that of MRIO method. The main reason for the difference is that the products of the provincial trade largely flow into the intermediate inputs, and ultimately be consumed by the rest provinces and exported. The regional distribution of the difference is further analyzed. The results of this study yield policy implications for the coordination of regional pollution and economic development.
