在中国对使用化石燃料征收碳排放费将对收入分配产生渐进式影响。这一结果与大多数工业化国家碳收费研究中发现的递减分配影响形成对比，主要是由城乡支出模式之间的差异造成的。如果碳收入通过“天空信托”在人均基础上平等回收，则累进影响将进一步增强：低收入（主要是农村）家庭获得的天空信托红利将超过他们支付的碳费，高收入（主要是城市）家庭支付的碳费将超过他们获得的红利。因此，中国的天空信托将有助于降低化石燃料消耗和提高收入平等。(c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
The introduction of carbon charges on the use of fossil fuels in China would have a progressive impact on income distribution. This outcome, which contrasts to the regressive distributional impact found in most studies of carbon charges in industrialized countries, is driven primarily by differences between urban and rural expenditure patterns. If carbon revenues were recycled on an equal per capita basis via a 'sky trust,' the progressive impact would be further enhanced: low-income (mainly rural) households would receive more in sky-trust dividends than they pay in carbon charges, and high-income (mainly urban) households would pay more than they receive in dividends. Thus a Chinese sky trust would contribute to both lower fossil fuel consumption and greater income equality. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
