Under the low-carbon background, with the aid of the Malmquist–Luenberger SBM (Slack-based Measure) model of unexpected output, the green total factor productivity (GTFP) of the logistics industry in Jiangsu Province, China, was measured and decomposed in this study based on the reality and experience of logistics industry development in 13 cities in three regions of Jiangsu Province in the years 2006–2018 by taking resource consumption into the input system and discharged pollutants into the output system. It is concluded that the environmental regulation (ER) has a significant positive effect on the growth of the GTFP of the logistics industry, and technological progress has become an important endogenous force that promotes the GTFP of the logistics industry in Jiangsu Province. On this basis, a dynamic GMM (Generalized method of moment) model and a Tobit model were constructed to further study the possible temporal and spatial effects of ER on the GTFP of the logistics industry. The research results reveal that the ER can exert both promoting and inhibitory effects on the GTFP of the logistics industry, and there is a temporal turning point for the effects. Besides, the effects notably differ spatially and temporally. Finally, some policies and advice for the green sustainable development of the logistics industry were proposed. For example, the government and enterprises should pay attention to the green and efficient development of the logistics industry and dynamically adjust the ER methods. They should consider the greening of both forward logistics links and reverse logistics system in the supply chain.

China's foreign trade implicit carbon net export country, China's huge trade surplus has brought the huge net exports implicit carbon emissions. There are quite a part of China's large amounts of carbon dioxide emissions is through exports to developed countries bear, only from a unilateral think China bring huge argument for carbon emissions is unfair. For this kind of problem, it should establish and improve the corresponding system and inspection system, and from the Angle of final consumption. It clears the main culprit of a carbon emissions and the necessary assumption of responsibility. Developed countries as an excuse and a carbon tariff on China's export products, an apparent bad intentions with trade protectionism. The international community should see China sacrifice for the development of the world, from a global view of China's carbon emissions.

The Relationship

The low-carbon transformation has turned out to be a challenging task faced by government agencies, enterprises, and society because of the global warming. Endorsing the expansion of the low-carbon revolution is considered as an essential measure for low-carbon alteration and advancement. Therefore, articulating realistic environmental control strategies intended to enhance the motivation level of low-carbon innovation, though outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) can produce direct and indirect influences on the growth of low-carbon innovation. According to the data of 30 provinces of China from 2004 to 2017, the relationship among environmental regulation, OFDI, and low-carbon innovation was analyzed using the spatial econometric model. Based on the analyzed data, the following conclusions were drawn. (i) From the national and regional perspectives, China’s low-carbon innovation takes understandable agglomeration features in the longitudinal dimension. In addition, environmental regulation plays a key role in promoting low-carbon innovation and regional heterogeneity. (ii) Environmental regulation might force enterprises outward foreign direct investment efficiently and increase the level of OFDI that will be capable of promoting low-carbon innovation. (iii) OFDI acts as an intermediary in the relationship between environmental regulation and low-carbon innovation, and this role has regional heterogeneity. (iv) There are significant spatial spillover effects of environmental regulation and OFDI on low-carbon innovation, environmental regulation on OFDI, and the intermediary effect of OFDI on environmental regulation and low-carbon innovation. This study supplements our understanding of the relationship between environmental regulation and OFDI, in addition to low-carbon innovation, which provides illumination for enterprise practice, as well as decision-makers.
