How can the Government"Walk Towards the Green Direction"Improve Corporate Carbon Performance?Based on the Perspective of Government Green Procurement
This paper selects listed companies from 2003 to 2021 as research samples,and collects data to evaluate the policy effects,pathways,and boundary conditions of government green procurement on corporate carbon performance.Results show that:①Government green procurement can improve corporate carbon performance,and the carbon performance of enterprises included in the government green procurement list has increased by 8.61％compared to the overall average level.This con-clusion is still significant after a series of robustness tests.②Government green procurement can promote corporate carbon performance by enhancing environmental awareness among executives,promoting green technology innovation,and increasing investment in pollution control,through the pathway of conceptual shaping,source prevention,and end treatment.③The stronger the decision-making ability of enterprise management,the more environmental subsidies they receive,and the grea-ter the external environmental supervision,the stronger the promoting effect of government green procurement on the carbon performance of enterprises;however,management's shortsightedness and financing constraints will weaken the effectiveness of the government's green procurement list in improving corporate carbon performance.
