“…Comparison between carbon tax and other carbon reducing policies revealed yet contradicting results, when Sun and Yang (2021) proposed that the carbon cap together with carbon trade policy is more effective in reducing carbon emissions than carbon tax, as well as in enhancing social welfare. However, Nersesian et al (2022) praised carbon tax as always succeeding in pressuring supply chains to adopt other green policies while carbon cap proves not able to work. Policy tools such as carbon taxes and subsidies can also influence and stimulate the use of specific carbon reduction technologies.…”

The shipping industry plays an important role in international trade and world economic development. In particular, the rapid growth of the shipping industry since 2020 has become an important factor in supporting and stimulating the rapid recovery of the global economy in the post epidemic era. However, under the background that climate warming has increasingly become the theme of common concern for all mankind, greenhouse gas emission reduction has increasingly attracted the attention of governments of all countries, and has also become the requirement for production and operation of all industries, the green, environmental protection and sustainable development of the shipping industry have also become the focus of participants in all sectors. As environmental problems put forward requirements of a green shipping industry, some policies aimed at reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, such as carbon tax, have brought considerations to the strategies of ports and enterprises, especially concerning their competition and cooperation. This study established a shipping supply chain system composed of two ports and one shipping company in order to analyse the impact of carbon tax on the shipping supply chain, and to optimize the decision‐making of government, ports and shipping companies. Through three‐level Stackelberg game of four models including ports cooperating or not cooperating with each other, and carbon tax levied on ports or the shipping company, the study finds that the collection of carbon tax will reduce the container handling volume of ports thus reducing the profits of both ports and the shipping company, but the handling volume when the government puts carbon tax on ports is lower than that when it puts carbon tax on the shipping company, and the handling volume under the port cooperation mode is lower than that under the port non‐cooperation mode. As the collector of carbon tax, the government's income when taxing ports is higher than that when taxing shipping companies, and when ports cooperate, the government's income is lower than that when ports do not cooperate. Moreover, no matter the ports cooperate with each other or not, the impact of carbon tax on port container handling volume under the mode of carbon tax levied by the government on ports is more significant than that when carbon tax is levied on the shipping company, leaving the former mode a lower container handling volume and lower profit. The findings of this study have the following significance and suggestions for the participants of shipping supply industry: In order to maximize the government's target value, the government should give priority to taxing shipping companies rather than ports; Under the background of carbon tax, ports should choose limited non‐cooperation strategies.

“…Generally, governments impose three types of carbon policies in order to constrain carbon emissions over the lifecycle of production: carbon caps, carbon tax, and cap-andtrade [43]. In terms of cap-and-trade, Mondal and Giri [30] examine retailer and manufacturer competition and cooperation in CLSCs.…”

Optimizing Green Strategy for Retired Electric Vehicle Battery Recycling: An Evolutionary Game Theory Approach

As the global new energy vehicle (NEV) industry rapidly expands, the disposal and recycling of end-of-life (EOL) power batteries have become imperative. Efficient closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) management, supported by well-designed regulations and strategic investments, plays a crucial role in sustainable waste power battery recycling. In this study, an evolutionary game theory (EGT) methodology is used to construct a tripartite game model to investigate the interactions among manufacturers, recyclers, and the government to study the decision-making dynamics of green investments. In addition, numerical simulations are performed to evaluate the sensitivity of the relevant parameters on the stability of the evolution of the system. The results reveal that government green subsidies can stimulate early period investments in advanced recycling technologies. However, as the battery recycling industry matures, a ‘free-rider’ behavior emerges among enterprises, which can be mitigated through the imposition of a carbon tax. Eventually, as the industry reaches maturity, manufacturers and recyclers autonomously invest for enhanced profitability. This research provides valuable insights for government policy formulation, facilitating the formal recycling of retired batteries and fostering sustainability in the NEV sector.

“…Additionally, the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, implemented in 2023, aims to standardize sustainability practices across Europe [7], through its extensive set of environmental, social, and governance indicators audited. Governments set three carbon policies for firms in the supply chain, which are carbon cap, carbon tax, and cap and trade [9]. Furthermore, organizations need to easily be able to be carbonneutral or -zero in order to satisfy their corporate social responsibility [10].…”

Exploring the nexus of technology and sustainability, this research delves into user engagement patterns on digital carbon offsetting platforms such as KlimaDAO. Drawing from the digital platform and storytelling literature, a set of hypotheses is put to the test using data from KlimaDAO’s initiative, which includes 1331 carbon offsets from 524 individuals. A stepwise logistic regression analysis confirms a curvilinear relationship: experts typically opt for a moderate level of offsetting, while the behavior of regular users spans a broad spectrum, from minimal to substantial offsetting. The analysis also confirms that experts are inclined to share their stories with a sense of optimism, whereas regular users seek out green credentials and prioritize high-quality carbon offsets. These insights not only enrich academic discourse but also have practical implications, underscoring the need to design carbon offsetting platforms that harness the positive narratives of experts while meeting the needs of regular users.
