Article Preview

Abstract:

Imbalanced distribution of Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) registered emissions reductions across host countries was criticized by international community. The paper provided empirical analysis of influence factors to CDM registered emissions reductions across 76 host countries over 4000 projects. The result indicates distribution influencing factors are host country total emission, projects size, project investment, infrastructure and financial services, and they were similar with those factors to general international trade. Finally, the paper concludes distribution of CDM registered emissions reductions across host countries match macroeconomic development status, it demonstrates that CDM plays a normal role as market-based mechanisms.
