The greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction policies focus on production and consumption perspectives by primarily concentrating on emissions embodied in demand and supply chains. However, the recent literature on trade points out the importance of the value added content of trade. With globalization, more and more components of final goods are produced in different regions of the world. Therefore, the emission responsibilities are masked by the “value added chains” of final goods that are traded. In this study we investigate the GHG emissions embodied in value added content of Turkish bilateral trade with the European Union (EU) within the context of Ecological Unequal Exchange (EUE) theory. With the model developed, it is possible to trace the direct and indirect emissions along the domestic and foreign value added chains. The analysis is conducted for 22 sectors for the years 1995–2015 using the OECD Trade in Value Added Statistics and World Input-Output Database. Even though Turkey has a trade deficit with the EU for 1995–2015 period, the empirical results of this study indicate that emissions resulting from the exporting activity of Turkey to the EU exceed the EU's GHG emissions resulting from the exporting activity of the EU to Turkey.

土耳其与欧盟的生态不平等交换:从增值角度评估

温室气体 (GHG) 减排政策侧重于生产和消费的角度,主要集中在需求和供应链中体现的排放。然而,最近关于贸易的文献指出了贸易附加值内容的重要性。随着全球化的发展,越来越多的最终产品组件在世界不同地区生产。因此,排放责任被交易的最终产品的“增值链”所掩盖。在这项研究中,我们在生态不平等交换 (EUE) 理论的背景下调查了土耳其与欧盟 (EU) 双边贸易的附加值内容中所体现的温室气体排放。通过开发该模型,可以追踪国内和国外增值链上的直接和间接排放。使用经合组织贸易增加值统计数据和世界投入产出数据库对 1995-2015 年的 22 个部门进行了分析。尽管土耳其在 1995-2015 年期间对欧盟存在贸易逆差,但本研究的实证结果表明,土耳其向欧盟出口活动产生的排放量超过欧盟向土耳其出口活动产生的欧盟温室气体排放量.
