Title: Study on Environmental Impact Factors of Carbon Emissions and Air Pollution Control in Transportation Industry
Abstract: Abstract Since the industrial revolution, global warming has become more and more serious. Existing research shows that the significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions such as CO 2 is the most important cause of global warming. Therefore, all countries have begun to formulate practical and feasible carbon emission reduction policies and measures. China is the largest developing country in the world and the largest energy consumer, facing many pressures to reduce emissions. This paper takes the carbon emissions of China’s transportation industry as the research object, based on the carbon emissions of China’s transportation industry from 2003 to 2017. Through the analysis of data, transportation industry added value, transportation intensity, transportation energy intensity and transportation energy structure were introduced to study the environmental impact factors and air pollution control of China’s transportation industry carbon emissions. Through the expanded STIRPAT model, the order of influence of various factors is ranked from the largest to the smallest: population size, transportation energy structure, transportation intensity, transportation energy intensity, transportation industry added value. This paper conducts a comprehensive and in-depth study on the influencing factors of China’s transportation industry carbon emissions, identifies the main influencing factors, and lays an important theoretical foundation for China to develop emission reduction targets and measures that meet environmental requirements and self-development.
