Abstract

carbon emission research is mostly concentrated on the field of industrial production, but ignore the role of residents' consumption in promoting carbon emissions. So this paper estimates the carbon emissions from urban and rural residents in Liaoning Province via input-output method. The conclusions are as follows: consumption of direct carbon emissions from urban and rural residents in Liaoning Province shows a tendency to decrease first, then rise while indirect still rising. What's more, the urban residents' direct and indirect carbon emissions are both much higher than that of rural. Indirect carbon emissions from urban residents in Liaoning are the main source of carbon emissions from residents' consumption, which is the focus of carbon emission control at the same time. According to the results, then we could suggest the relevant departments in Liaoning province take the effective measures.
