Xülasə:
China's light industry is very important to global value chains, but we still
don't know enough about how it contributes to embodied carbon emissions at the
sector level. This research utilizes a global multi-regional input-output
framework derived from the World Input-Output Database to measure both
production-based and consumption-based embodied carbon emissions linked to
China's light industrial exports from 2002 to 2016. The analysis uses the
Leontief inverse matrix and sectoral carbon intensity coefficients to follow
direct and indirect carbon transfers between 42 economies and 56 sectors. The
results show that China is always a net exporter of embodied carbon emissions,
especially in carbon-heavy industries like textiles, leather, and paper
products. Production-based accounting assigns considerable emissions to
domestic industrial activities, whereas consumption-based analysis reveals that
a big portion of these emissions is influenced by international demand. This
difference shows that there are structural imbalances in global carbon
responsibilities and provides real-world proof of how carbon leakage works in
international trade. To bolster robustness, the work employs cross-database
validation with EXIOBASE and EORA, thereby affirming that WIOD-based
estimations maintain consistency within acceptable analytical margins. The
study connects embodied carbon flows to carbon leakage, comparative advantage
in pollution-heavy industries, and environmental justice issues. This adds to
the continuing discussions about how to make trade more sustainable and fair
climate governance. The findings provide pertinent insights for sector-specific
decarbonization, preparedness for carbon border adjustments, and synchronized
global mitigation efforts amid the developing climate policy frameworks.
