Abstract
This paper
analyzes the impact of natural resource exploitation on carbon transfer in
international trade, using a severity model estimated by the Pseudo-Poisson
Maximum Likelihood High Dimension Fixed Effects (PPMLHDFE) estimator and
embodied carbon data from the Enriched Open-Source Multi-Region Input-Output
Database (EORA), covering 106 exporting and 114 importing countries over the
period 1999–2021. The study demonstrates that natural resource exploitation
significantly increases the carbon emissions associated with exported goods.
The effect varies according to the type of resource and the income level of the
countries, being moderate in low-income economies and more pronounced in
middle- and high-income economies. This work contributes to the literature by
providing a comprehensive empirical analysis and offering recommendations to
guide public policies and industrial strategies toward an effective reduction of
embodied carbon while supporting economic development and the
energy transition. Policy implications are discussed.
