The Study About The Effect Of Environmental Regulation On Carbon Emission

The global ecomony has developed rapidly since 21^stcentury.However,due to the fact that more and more countries chose high-energy consumption ecomonic pattern,the environment has gone worse and worse.As the biggest country in carbon emissions,China has marvellous pressure in reducing carbon emission and achieving low-carbon economy.How the chinese government achieve sustainable and low-carbon development becomes one of most important studies in our country.The article will introduce environmental regulation,which is the way of solving problem about carbon emission.After that the article will take the relationship between environmental regulation and carbon emission as the empirical research object.Based on the panel data of 30 Chinese provincial areas from 2007 to 2017,the paper would explore the mechanism of environmental regulation to carbon emission intensity through four variables,which includes industrial structure,energy consumption structure,technical innovation and foreign direct investment.Finally,some of suggestion about how the government solve the problem concerning carbon emission will be offered.Results show that environmental regulation can reduce carbon emission directly,and it could reduce carbon emission through the adjustment of industrial structure,energy structure,technical innovation and foreign direct investment.
