Carbon emissions permits has its own particularity,and with the development of carbon finance,carbon emissions permits possess the commodity attributes and financial attributes.So its price isn’t determined only by the relationship of commodity supply and demand,but also affected by a variety of factors.But because the transaction data is not available,so the pricing of the carbon emissions permits can not really consider from the angle of the influencing factors of price.Therefore, this paper is on the basis of previous studies using mathematical tools and introducing the option pricing mechanism to study th pricing of China's carbon emissions permits basing on carbon emissions,which is designed for providing reference on the pricing of China's carbon emissions,being of both theoretical and practical significance.

Guangdong province, as a large energy consumption province as well as a large economic province in China, is facing more and more severe pressure from reducing carbon emission. Reducing agricultural carbon emissions and developing agricultural carbon storage and carbon sequestration, will result in a brilliant future for Guangdong agriculture. In this paper, agricultural carbon emissions of Guangdong during 1991-2012 are quantitatively analyzed to discover its variation characteristics. An evident evolution law between Guangdong economic growth and agricultural carbon emissions is revealed. The evolution law showed "N" shaped curve rather than the typical inverted "U" shaped curve of EKC, and there is no indication when the inflection point will appear, which indicates that agricultural carbon pollution will be more serious with economic growth in Guangdong. Finally, some corresponding suggestions on the policy are put forward to reduce carbon emissions.

Abstract The agriculture and food sectors contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. About 15 percent of food-related carbon emissions are channeled through restaurants. Using a contingent valuation (CV) method with double-bounded dichotomous choice (DBDC) questions, this article investigates U.S. consumers’ willingness to pay (WTP) for an optional restaurant surcharge in support of carbon emission reduction programs. The mean estimated WTP for a surcharge is 6.05 percent of an average restaurant check, while the median WTP is 3.64 percent. Our results show that individuals have a higher WTP when the surcharge is automatically added to restaurant checks. We also find that an information nudge—a short climate change script—significantly increases WTP. Additionally, our results demonstrate that there is heterogeneity in treatment effects across consumers’ age, environmental awareness, and economic views. Our findings suggest that a surcharge program could transfer a meaningful amount of the agricultural carbon reduction burden to consumers that farmers currently shoulder.

Fieldwork east of Oakham, Rutland has located evidence of prehistoric settlement, land use patterns, and ceremonial monuments. Part of this included the excavation of a cropmark site which has revealed an unusual sequence of Neolithic/Early Bronze Age pit circles and a burial area. This is complemented by a fieldwalking survey of the surrounding areas, allowing consideration of the relationship of juxtaposed flint scatters and the excavated ceremonial area.

Greenhouse gases such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and carbon dioxide have been recognized as the prime cause of global climate change, which has received significant global attention. Among these gases, carbon dioxide is considered as the prominent gas which motivated researchers to explore carbon reduction and mitigation strategies. Research work on this domain expands from carbon emission reporting to identifying and implementing carbon mitigation and reduction strategies. A comprehensive study to map global research on carbon emissions is, however, not available. Therefore, based on a scientometric analysis method, this study reviewed the global literature on carbon emissions. A total of 2945 bibliographic records, from 1981 to 2019, were extracted from the Web of Science core collection database and analyzed using techniques such as co-author and co-citation analysis. Findings revealed an increasing trend of publications in the carbon emission research domain, which has been more visible in the past few years, especially during 2016–2018. The most significant contribution to the domain was reported from China, the United States, and England. While most prolific authors and institutions of the domain were from China, authors and institutions from the United States reported the best connection links. It was revealed that evaluating greenhouse gas emissions and estimating the carbon footprint was popular among the researchers. Moreover, climate change and environmental effects of carbon emissions were also significant points of concern in carbon emission research. The key findings of this study will be beneficial for the policymakers, academics, and institutions to determine the future research directions as well as to identify with whom they can consult to assist in developing carbon emission control policies and future carbon reduction targets.

Energy-related carbon emissions in districts and counties of Guangdong province from 2005 to 2016 are researched based on spatial econometrics method in this article, and significance cluster area and heterogeneity area are precise pinpointed. Conclusions are as follows: (1) total carbon emissions and per capita carbon emissions exist significance global spatial autocorrelation in the year 2005-2016, and formed significance high-high cluster area in districts and counties of Guangzhou city, Shenzhen city and Dongguan city. It also formed three significance low-low cluster areas in districts and counties of eastern, western and northern of Guangdong province. Low-high heterogeneity area and high -low heterogeneity area often appears in the scope of high-high cluster area and low-low cluster area. (2)Carbon emission intensity not exist significance global spatial autocorrelation, but exist significance cluster area and heterogeneity area in the ecological development areas of eastern, western and northern of Guangdong province. In the end, the paper puts forward the regional and detailed policy recommendations for efficient carbon emission reduction for each cluster type region: carbon high-high cluster areas are priority reduce emissions area, heighten energy saving technology and optimize industrial structure are two grippers to reduce emissions. Low - low carbon emissions concentrated area in western of Guangdong should primarily develop high and new technology industry. Low low carbon emissions concentrated areas and high - high carbon emissions intensity concentrated area for eastern and northern of Guangdong province should try hard to wins ecological compensation at the same time focus on developing ecological tourism.

The study on the relationship between investment in environmental governance, carbon emission and economic growth is helpful for the relevant government departments to coordinate the influence among them when formulating the policies of reducing emission and conserving energy, so as to take the comparative advantages of various factors and promote the benign interaction between economic development and environmental governance. In this paper, the data of Per capita GDP, per capita investment in environmental governance and per capita CARBON dioxide emissions in China from 2000 to 2019 are selected as the research basis, and variables are studied by means of Granger causality and impulse response function. As shown in the results, there is a single Granger relationship between investment in environmental governance and carbon emissions, that is, the increase of investment in environmental governance leads to the reduction of carbon emissions. The influence of economic growth on environmental governance investment is small, but in the long term, it can restrain the growth of carbon emissions. Investment in environmental governance can promote economic growth and stimulate a reduction in the emissions in the short term; Economic growth was hindered by the emissions in the long term and fail to stimulate increased investment in environmental governance. Based on these findings, this paper proposes policy Suggestions for optimizing the structure of environmental governance investment, improving the carbon emission monitoring and response mechanism, and strengthening the technological level of energy conservation and emission reduction.
