This paper examines the impact of environmental regulation stringency on the location choice of Chinese pollution-intensive firms. We find that the stringency reduces the number and growth rate of pollution-intensive firms in highly regulated regions. An important channel through which stringent...

Chiral cell structures have the potential to transform the robot design field because of the structures’ ability to adopt various deformations under uniaxial load, such as twisting and a negative Poisson’s ratio. The rationale that underpins this potential is asymmetric deformation that is...

Different ETS allowance distribution method may vary the effeteness of the ETS on the regulated firm’s performance. This paper uses the Propensity Score Matching Difference-in-Differences method found that the China ETS could increase its regulated firm competitiveness from different aspects....

This paper assesses the impact of environmental regulation stringency on the relocation of pollution-intensive firms in China. Pollution haven hypothesis (Porter theory) suggests that firms would (not) choose to relocate (but to innovate). We proxy the regulation stringency with multidimensional...
