论文导读

文章运用微观调查数据、无条件分位数回归模型（UQR）和OB分解方法研究了中国家庭碳足迹的不平等，研究发现中国家庭碳足迹在城乡、区域、收入组别以及各分位数等方面均存在严重不平等现象，且呈扩大趋势。从微观层面来看，家庭碳足迹不平等以及加剧主要来自于高碳家庭和中等碳足迹家庭之间的差异，除收入、城乡、教育等家庭特征外，生活方式改变对于中国家庭碳足迹不平等以及变化具有重要的影响。文章认为需要在应对气候变化过程中提高家庭碳足迹的公平问题，促进公平转型，要特别注意生活方式对家庭碳足迹及不平等的影响，文章为中国和其他发展中国家的碳减排政策设计提供了有益的参考。

论文摘要

The significant achievements in economic growth and urbanization in China have recently led to substantial increases of and great inequality in household carbon footprints (HCFs). To achieve efficiency and justice in emissions reduction, policymakers need to fully understand the sources of HCFs and identify the major causes of carbon inequality. By applying the Unconditional Quantile Regression (UQR) model and decomposition method to the Chinese household survey data, this paper investigates the distributional features of HCFs and their determinants. We find that HCFs are unevenly distributed due to differences in the volume and pattern of consumption, which are further determined by household characteristics and lifestyles. The intertemporal lifestyle changes have played a major role in the rise of HCFs inequality measured by various quantile emissions differentials. In addition, considerable increases in HCFs come from the high carbon emission groups, and most of the HCFs inequality stems from the 90–50 emissions differential. To transform the current carbon-intensive economy, policies are required to enhance environmental equity and encourage low-carbon lifestyles.
