Measurement and driving factors of carbon productivity in China's provinces: From the perspective of embodied carbon emissions.

ABSTRACT: Carbon productivity incorporates economic development and carbon emissions within a unified framework for measuring the economic value per unit carbon emissions. In the context of climate change, improving carbon productivity is of great value for promoting low-carbon development in a country or region. From the perspective of embodied carbon emissions, this study constructs an embodied carbon productivity (ECP) index and uses the Logarithmic Mean Divisia Index decomposition method to study the evolution trends and driving factors of ECP in China's provinces based on China Interregional Input-Output Tables for 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017. The following results were obtained: First, China's overall ECP showed a continuously increasing trend during the entire period, with the energy efficienc
