[目的]减污降碳协同增效是促进经济社会发展全面绿色转型的总抓手,环境信息公开对生态治理的重要性愈发显现,评估环境信息公开的减污降碳效应为经济社会绿色低碳发展提供科学依据。[方法]本文以"污染源监管信息公开"作为一项准自然实验,基于中国2004-2020年235个地级市面板数据,运用双重差分法检验了环境信息公开对减污降碳的直接影响与作用机制。[结果]①环境信息公开能够实现减污与降碳双赢,具体而言,该制度使得试点城市污染水平和碳排放水平相对样本均值分别降低了 25。5%和19。2%。②环境信息公开的降碳效应在资源型城市、强环境规制城市更为明显,且该效应随碳排放的水平提高呈边际递减趋势。环境信息公开的减污效应对不同城市则显现出相对普遍和稳定的特征。③绿色技术创新、政府财政支持和产业结构升级是环境信息公开促进减污降碳的重要机制;④低碳城市试点政策能够强化环境信息公开的减污降碳效应,而碳排放权交易政策的强化作用并不明显。[结论]本文准确识别了环境信息公开助力城市减污降碳的关键作用,为完善环境规制体系,强化协同减排行动提供了经验证据。为此,应进一步提升环境信息公开的深度与广度,设计特色鲜明、精准有效的治理路径,打好减污降碳政策"组合拳",为新征程继续推进生态文明建设奠定基础。
Effects of environmental information disclosure on pollution reduction and carbon emission reduction
[Objective]The synergistic enhancement of pollution reduction and carbon emission mitigation serves as the general approach to promote the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development.The importance of environmental information disclosure for ecological governance has become increasingly evident,and assessing the pollution reduction and carbon emission reduction effects of environmental information disclosure provides a scientific evidence for the development of a green and low-carbon economy and society.[Methods]This study took Pollution Source Supervision Information Disclosure as a quasi-natural experiment.Based on the panel data from 235 prefecture-level cities in China from 2004 to 2020,the study employed the difference-in-differences method to examine the impact of environmental information disclosure on pollution reduction and carbon emission mitigation and mechanisms.[Results](1)Environmental information disclosure led to a win-win situation for pollution reduction and carbon emission mitigation.Specifically,this system had resulted in a relative decrease of 25.5%and 19.2%in pollution and carbon emissions levels,respectively,compared to the sample mean in pilot cities.(2)The carbon emission reduction effect of environmental information disclosure was more pronounced in resource-based cities and cities with stringent environmental regulations,and this effect exhibited a diminishing marginal trend as carbon emission levels increased.The pollution reduction effect of environmental information disclosure appeared relatively even and stable across different cities.(3)Green technological innovation,government financial support,and industrial structure upgrading were important mechanisms through which environmental information disclosure promoted pollution reduction and carbon emission mitigation.(4)Low-carbon city pilot policies can strengthen the pollution reduction and carbon emission mitigation effects of environmental information disclosure,while the reinforcing effect of carbon emission trading policies is not clearly evident.[Conclusion]This study accurately identified the key role of environmental information disclosure in facilitating pollution reduction and carbon emission mitigation in cities,providing empirical evidence for improving environmental regulatory systems and strengthening coordinated emission reduction actions.Therefore,it is necessary to further enhance the depth and breadth of environmental information disclosure,design distinct and precise governance pathways,implement a comprehensive set of policies for pollution reduction and carbon emission mitigation,and lay the foundation for advancing ecological civilization in the new era.
