Study Of Environmental Effect About Trade In Goods And Their Policy

The import and export of trade in goods of China increase rapidly after China joining the WTO. It brings some good effects like development of the economy and advance of people's living standard. And the trade in goods also affects the environment of China. This article analyzes the effects from static and dynamic view.As the analysis in the chapter 2, from the static view, the export of goods has a positive on environment because the heavy pollution goods take a little proportion in the whole export. And the import of goods is positive too, because the heavy pollution goods take a large proportion in the whole import.From the dynamic view, trade in goods can affect environment through scale effect, composition effect and technique effect. According to the analysis of chapter 3, scale effect and industrial composition effect are negative effects, while technique effect is positive effect.After that, in chapter 4, the writer uses the model created by Antweiler, Copeland and Taylar adding some amends to estimate the static and dynamic effect of trade in goods. The results are consistent with the demonstrations in chapter 2 and chapter 3.In the last chapter, the writer analyzes how the trade in goods' policy affects environment. Because the benefit and aims of the official are not always consistent with the aim of environment, the official can make a negative policy relating to environment when there is a conflict. So in this condition, there are only developed countries making efforts to protect environment. But as analysis in this part, developed countries can use trade policy as a method of asking the developing countries to protect environment in their own countries.
