Abstract

Though analyzing the environmental impacts of household consumption has been well studied, little attention has been paid to a few basic questions. Compared to the CO2 emissions related to the productive process, we discuss the characteristics of the emissions related to household consumption. Extending the household metabolism model to open economy, we divide the emissions related to household consumption into three categories: direct and indirect emissions; domestic and imported emissions; autonomous and induced emissions. Then we build the estimative formulas respectively.
