Abstract

Recently the division of labor, caused by economic globalization, makes big difference to the whole world economy. The traditional inter-industry division gradually transfers to intra-industry division during one certain production process. Developing countries have to face serious environmental problems and pressure of huge carbon emissions. Based on literatures about GVC and carbon emission intensity, this paper chooses 38 industries as research sample and uses data from 2004 to 2014 to measure the annual carbon emission intensity and index of GVC status of different Chinese industries. Finally, we found that the higher the index of GVC status, the lower the carbon intensity. TIFA is negatively correlated with carbon emission intensity, while adjusting energy consumption structure and increasing FDI in high-carbon industries are beneficial to reduce the carbon emission intensity.
