Outline of Final Research Achievements |
China’s rapid development has brought about a dramatic increase in environmental loads. As a first step in investigating these issues, we examined how exports from China to Japan contribute to increased environmental loads in China. In this study, we quantitatively clarified the economic and environmental relationships between China and Japan using a China-Japan interregional waste input-output (CJIRWIO) table for the year 2007. The final demand of Japan induced four times larger GHG emissions in China than the final demand of China induced in Japan. The final demand of Japan also induced about five times larger waste from industrial sectors in China than the final demand of China induced in Japan. So, final consumption in Japan brings about large economic repercussion effects in China, and these are accompanied by large environmental loads. It is also very important for the governments of both countries to cooperate in order to reduce environmental loads.
