摘 要:
With the aiming of alleviating the air pollution in Beijing with continuing providing Beijing the products and services, Chinese government moved the high-polluting enterprises out of Beijing to its neighbor province – Hebei. By this mean, a pollution haven is “created” around Beijing unexpectedly. After the out-migration of the high-pollution enterprises, however, air quality in Beijing seems not improved, and the enterprises in Hebei became the blamed. The blame is that the air-born pollutants in Hebei drift or are blown back to Beijing. Therefore, this paper investigates the existence of the “Pollution Haven’s Attack Back” and measures the contribution of it, if exists, to Beijing’s air pollution. We find that the proportion of high polluting industry output values in Hebei increased by 0.448% each year from 2003 to 2013 on average, while the proportion of Beijing decreased by 0.97% each year. We also find higher emissions of enterprises in Hebei than their counterpart in Beijing. These two findings indicate the existence of the pollution haven. Furthermore, we find a significant effect of the neighboring cities’ air pollution on Beijing’s air quality. It indicates that pollution haven has attacked back. These findings imply the importance of forming an economic policy system controlling air pollution regionally.
