Research on the Driving Factors of Carbon Emissions Inequality of Logistics in China

Logistics industry is one of the main sources of carbon emission in China, and the realization of low-carbon logistics is of great significance to promote environmental governance in China. Due to the regional inequality in the development of China's logistics industry, it is urgent to break through the barriers brought by regional inequality in the construction of a low-carbon logistics system, so as to promote the coordinated development of low-carbon logistics. Based on the carbon emission accounting of three regions in China from 2007 to 2019, Theil index was used to measure the regional inequality of China's logistics industry based on per capita carbon emission index, and LMDI method was used to decompose and analyze the driving factors of inequality in China's regional logistics industry.The empirical results show that: (1) The level of inequality in China's region is obviously higher than the level of inequality between regions; (2) Each driving factor has a big difference in the contribution degree to the per capita carbon emission change of the logistics industry in the three regions. Reducing these differences will contribute to the realization of the regional coordinated development of low-carbon logistics.
