亚洲国家一直面临着各种环境问题，从空气和水污染到气候变化。与此同时，许多人寻求更高的收入和进一步的经济发展，这需要更多的政府收入。本文介绍了碳定价、环境税和排污权交易计划，这些计划都有助于实现两个目标：保护环境和增加收入。本文从增加收入和环境保护有效性的角度，以亚洲为重点，回顾了这些政策工具的实施经验。具体而言，印度、日本、大韩民国、中华人民共和国和新加坡的经验表明，政府可以在减少排放的同时增加收入。最后，我们总结了我们的政策影响。
Asian countries have been facing various environmental problems, ranging from air and water pollution to climate change. At the same time, many people seek higher income and further economic development, which requires more government revenue. This paper introduces carbon pricing, environmental tax, and emissions trading schemes, all schemes that can help achieve the two objectives: environmental conservation and revenue raising. The paper reviews experiences from the implementation of these policy instruments from the perspective of raising revenue and the effectiveness in environmental conservation with focus on Asia. Specifically, the experiences in India, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the People’s Republic of China, and Singapore show that governments can raise revenue while reducing emissions. We conclude our paper with policy implications.
