摘要：Harvested wood products (HWPs) contribute to forestry carbon sinks and therefore to climate change mitigation. However, the complex international trade and the embodied carbon of exported HWPs along the global supply chain are not properly accounted in existing HWP carbon accounting schemes, precluding effective climate policy design. To address this knowledge gap, we developed a generalizable Trade-Linked Approach to estimate the material flows, carbon stocks, and carbon emissions distributed among an HWP-producing country and its trade partners, with a case study for China-made HWPs from 1900 to 2020. Here we show China’s trade partners supplied 16% of raw materials (1,457 MtCO2e), consumed 22% of China-made HWPs (1,373 MtCO2e), and accumulated 17% of carbon stocks (839 MtCO2e). The overseas carbon sink increased over time to 49 MtCO2e yr?1 (22% of total) in the last decade. We report fast-increasing international carbon exchanges in China’s HWP supply chain, providing new policy options for reducing unsustainable forest management worldwide and incentivizing carbon sink increases in both HWP producing and consuming countries. ? 2022, The Authors.
