Abstract
The carbon dioxide emission caused by household consumption has been attracting growing attention; however, the linkage mechanisms of carbon dioxide emission caused by household consumption among sectors have been rarely studied. This paper employs the hypothetical extraction method to analyze the linkage of sectoral carbon dioxide emission caused by household consumption in China. The results show that, first, the sectors PDEH, OTHERS, MFT and SPM have the most important influence on carbon dioxide emission produced by each sector. Specifically, the sectors PDEH and SPM play the main role in pushing carbon dioxide emission, while the sectors OTHERS and MFT have important effect on pulling carbon dioxide emission. Second, the sectors with high supply carbon dioxide emission are inconsistent with those having high demand carbon dioxide emission. Finally, the carbon dioxide emission when urban household consumption expenditure rises ten thousand Yuan appears higher than that by rural household consumption expenditure.
