Going Green in China: Firms’ Responses to Stricter Environmental Regulations (2019, positive): “Our paper is also related to studies executing decomposition of change of emissions reductions that can be explained by various effects (Levinson, 2009; Martin, 2011; Shapiro and Walker, 2018).”
Trade, environmental regulations and industrial mobility: An industry-level study of Japan (2010, background): “However, once the immobility variables are included in the equation regulation costs interacted with average regulation costs becomes statistically insignificant.”
A Global Assessment of Manufacturing: Economic Development, Energy Use, Carbon Emissions, and the Potential for Energy Efficiency and Materials Recycling (2013, background): “A decomposition analysis reveals that most of this improvement came from technology (pollution controls) and not offshoring (45).”
Innovation-driven industrial green development: The moderating role of regional factors (2019, background): “FDI can bring advanced cleaner production technologies and technological spillover effects, thus improving the environment in the host country and creating a “pollution halo” (Levinson, 2009).”
Energy intensity developments in 40 major economies: Structural change or technology improvement? (2013, background): “7For a similar argument for the case of the impact of international trade on the pollution in US manufacturing between 1987 and 2001, see Levinson (2009).”
Trade, pollution and mortality in China (2016, positive): “According to the World Bank IPPS data on emission intensity employed by Levinson (2009), SIC industry 331 and 332 are in the top 10% industries by emissions of both SO2 and particulate matter.”
Why Is Pollution from US Manufacturing Declining? The Roles of Environmental Regulation, Productivity, and Trade (2018, neutral): “Some research relates national changes in pollution emissions to three channels: changes in the aggregate level of manufacturing output, changes in the composition of output across manufacturing industries, and changes in the pollution emitted per unit output within an industry (Levinson, 2009).”
Trade and the Greenhouse Gas Emissions from International Freight Transport (2011, positive): “We employ this database to quantify the contribution of international transport to total emissions, and to highlight 1 Examples include Ederington and Minier (2003), Babiker (2005), Levinson (2009), Levinson and Taylor (2008) among others.”
