“…As Figure 5 shows, this is particularly significant for the Eastern European countries. The work conducted by Tsagkari et al (2018) shows similar results for the specific case of the Polish economy, where CO 2 emissions increased significantly since its integration into the EU.…”

“…The research conducted by Tsagkari et al (2018) analyzes the link between the rapid economic growth of the Polish country following its trade opening and European integration process and the environmental effects linked to these processes. Their results point out to a significant increase in CO 2 emissions directly linked to the processes of integration and trade liberalization.…”

This paper aims to analyze the economic dimension and environmental impact of intra-EU value-added generation linked to global value chains (GVCs) through input-output analysis. For this purpose, information has been collected from TiVA (Trade in Value Added, OECD) and Eora databases for the years 2005 and 2015. From an economic perspective, the results point to a strengthening of the value-added generated within Factory Europe. From an environmental perspective, all EU28 members have reduced their exports-related impacts in intensity-emissions terms, but not all of them in the same degree. An approach to the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) has also been carried out through a panel data model. The results show a positive impact of the participation in intra-EU value chain (Factory Europe) on CO2 emissions per capita. Further, an inverted U-shaped curve for CO2 emissions is found for the period 2005–15. In this sense, European economies with lower development levels (many Eastern and Southern countries) seem to be still on the rising segment of the curve, while the more developed ones seem to be on the decreasing segment. These results highlight the need to design global monitoring and prevention mechanisms to tackle growing environmental challenges and the need to incorporate specific actions associated with the GVCs activity.

“…In contrast, Russia has the potential to reduce CO 2 emissions by importing a large number of agriculture and light industry products [6,7]. Free trade throughout the world causes carbon to transfer among industrial sectors of different countries [8,9]. In the context of trade globalization, this paper examines whether Russia has benefited or suffered from the international trade concerning for CO 2 emissions.…”

Decomposition Analysis of CO2 Emissions Embodied in the International Trade of Russia

Our study improves the decomposition method based on the input–output approach to analyze CO2 emissions embodied in the international trade of Russia over the period from 1995 to 2014. The research finds out that carbon was transferred from the upstream resource sectors to the downstream manufacturing sectors and service sectors in Russia. Moreover, Russia was a net exporter of CO2 emissions. 31.46% of Russia’s CO2 emissions were generated for other countries’ consumption in 1999 while 10.68% in 2013. Basic resource and energy sectors were the significant emitters of exporting CO2 emissions. Sectors from traditional manufacturing industries and modern technical industries played an important role in importing embodied CO2 emissions of Russia. Moreover, the effect of modern technical industries on importing embodied CO2 emissions was increasing. The period after 2003 witnessed a substantial decline in Russia’s carbon intensities, which was majorly due to the transformation of the energy structure. Decomposition analysis of CO2 emissions embodied in the international trade can show the trading effect on embodied CO2 emissions from both exporting and importing perspectives. Russia’s case is able to provide instructive implications to the global climate mitigation policy. Countries that burden CO2 emissions for other countries’ consumption are encouraged to participate in the climate negotiation effectively and internalize environmental costs by products’ and services’ pricing in the international trade.

“…First of all, international trade is the prerequisite for the survival of international logistics, and it is also the basis for solving the obstacles of transnational supply chain, so global procurement and international trade must be considered in logistics operation [57]. At the same time, trade opening has also been proved to have a major impact on environmental pollution and energy consumption [58][59][60]. Secondly, urbanization will increase the growth rate of energy consumption, and its impact on carbon emissions has been empirically tested in developing countries [61,62].…”

The purpose of this study is to test the relationship among green logistics, environmental degradation, and energy demand. The system generalized method of moment (system GMM) is used to study the data of Asian countries and four subregions in Asia. The estimation results show that logistics operation consumes nonrenewable energy such as fossil fuels, which has a negative impact on environmental sustainability and energy demand. The service quality and capability (LPITC) in the logistics performance index has a significant contribution to reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The logistics infrastructure (LPIIN) has significantly reduced the energy consumption in Asia, while the customs (LPIC) has significantly increased the energy demand. Other indicators of LPI also have a significant impact on the environment and energy in different subregions of Asia. Industrialization and urbanization both increase carbon emissions in Asia, while trade opening reduces carbon emissions. At the same time, these three variables have a positive impact on reducing energy consumption. The results show that logistics performance is significantly related to environmental degradation and energy, and renewable energy and green supply chain management can reduce the harmful effects of logistics activities on environment and energy. Therefore, Asian countries should give priority to environmental sustainability in supply chain management and encourage the application of green practices in logistics.
