A Comparative Study On The Impact Of Carbon Tariff And Carbon Tax To China's Industry

In recent years, global warming problem is becoming more and more serious. The increase in carbon dioxide emissions is the main reason. Therefore, more and more countries and regions have taken a variety of reduction measures,and carbon tax is one of them. Because of it, carbon tax countries will lose competitive advantage in international trade. Therefore, when they import products from no carbon tax countries, they will consider the carbon tariff.China is export-oriented country,so carbon tariff will increase our export product cost. This will inhibit our export.In order to avoid carbon tariff, we can impose carbon tax in our country.But the carbon tax will increase all our product costs.It will inhibit consumption, investment,not only export.This paper calculates embodied carbon emissions in our foreign trade and the final product. On the basis of international carbon price, it will set three carbon tariff rates. Supposeing carbon tariff amount and carbon tax amount is equal, it will find the corresponding carbon tax rate in our country, and calculate the current carbon price.Then compare carbon price and the marginal abatement cost, so as to know carbon tax basis. At the same time, study the influence of carbon tax on other commodity prices and the general price.
