讲座内容:Inefficient environmental regulations can lead to the misallocation of abatement inputs between firms, resulting in an aggregate output loss. To combat pollution, the Chinese central government adopted a top-down approach via the cadre evaluation system in 2006. While effective in reducing emissions, this tightened regulation proved inefficient in minimizing the cost of emissions reduction. Our study evaluates the output loss resulting from inefficient environmental regulation in China from 2000 to 2009. Using data from Chinese manufacturing firms, we observe a significant increase in the dispersion of firm-level regulation intensity since 2006, which translate into a 1.8% decline in manufacturing total factor productivity (TFP) from 2006 to 2009 compared to the previous period with laxer regulations.
