From production-based to consumption-based national emission inventories
TLDR
In this paper, two distinct accounting approaches for constructing consumption-based NEI are presented, which differ in the allocation of intermediate consumption of imported products and a consistent method of weighting production-based and consumption based NEI is discussed.About:

Consumption-based accounting of CO2 emissions
Steven J. Davis,Ken Caldeira +1 more
TL;DR: This work finds that, in 2004, 23% of global CO2 emissions, or 6.2 gigatonnes CO2, were traded internationally, primarily as exports from China and other emerging markets to consumers in developed countries.

Carbon Footprint of Nations: A Global, Trade-Linked Analysis
Edgar G. Hertwich,Glen P. Peters +1 more
TL;DR: The cross-national expenditure elasticity for just CO2 corresponds remarkably well to the cross-sectional elasticities found within nations, suggesting a global relationship between expenditure and emissions that holds across several orders of magnitude difference.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth in emission transfers via international trade from 1990 to 2008
TL;DR: A trade-linked global database for CO2 emissions covering 113 countries and 57 economic sectors from 1990 to 2008 indicates that international trade is a significant factor in explaining the change in emissions in many countries, from both a production and consumption perspective.

CO2 embodied in international trade with implications for global climate policy.
Glen P. Peters,Edgar G. Hertwich +1 more
TL;DR: The CO2 emissions embodied in international trade among 87 countries for the year 2001 is determined and it is found that globally there are over 5.3 Gt of CO2 embodied in trade and that Annex B countries are net importers ofCO2 emissions.

Building eora: a global multi-region input–output database at high country and sector resolution
TL;DR: The results from a project aimed at creating an MRIO account that represents all countries at a detailed sectoral level, allows continuous updating, provides information on data reliability, contains table sheets expressed in basic prices as well as all margins and taxes, and contains a historical time series are described.

Our Ecological Footprint: reducing human impact on the earth - eScholarship
TL;DR: Wackernagel and Rees as mentioned in this paper presented an analysis of the aggregate land area required for a given population to exist in a sustainable manner, and showed that at 11 acres per person, the U.S. has the highest per capita footprint.

China's environment in a globalizing world
Jianguo Liu,Jared M. Diamond +1 more
TL;DR: In a Feature this week, Jianguo Liu and Jared Diamond look at the effects of China's sweeping environmental change and socio-economic challenges, synthesizing detailed literature that is scattered even for Chinese readers and largely inaccessible to western readers.
