The article looks at what factors cause carbon emissions in China's transportation industry and how they can be reduced. By analyzing different effects like the use of technology and capital, the study found that capital investment has the biggest impact on increasing carbon emissions, followed by the type of energy used. However, advancements in technology have been helpful in cutting down on carbon pollution. Between 2001 and 2018, China's transportation industry emitted a lot of carbon but some things like how efficiently energy is used and how much is needed to transport goods had an impact on slowing down the growth of carbon emissions. Overall, the findings give insight into how to reduce carbon pollution caused by transportation and control energy consumption.
