title: Paying the Carbon Price: An Input-Output Perspective on the Carbon Emission Trade Balance for Rural Growth

full_text_status: public
abstract: Within the EU, rural regions have become important drivers of growth. This research attempts to uncover the emissions that are embedded in rural growth. We use a unique regional input-output dataset for NUTS-2 regions in 25 EU countries, that allows us to find the change in emissions in rural production and consumption between 2000 and 2007, as well as the drivers of that change. We find that production-based emissions have increased more strongly in the rural regions than in the intermediate or urban regions. Similarly, consumption-based emissions for rural regions have increased by 23% compared to 18% and 15% for intermediate and urban regions respectively. As a result, the emission trade balance has decreased for all three types of regions, but mostly in rural regions. The results indicate that this is not due to an increase in per capita rural consumption, but rather due to different preferences in consumption.
