【 摘 要 】

This article analyzed the dynamic relationship among economic growth, urbanization, transportation and carbon emissions. First, it calculated carbon emissions of transportation industry. It conducted a comparative analysis of emissions structure. Then, it analysed the dynamic relationship among variables using the VAR model. Finally, the interaction between short- medium-long term variables was studied based on the impulse response model. The results show that the carbon emissions of transportation industry have grown significantly, and the optimization of energy structure has a certain role in promoting carbon emission reduction. There is a positive correlation from urbanization, economic growth, and transportation to carbon emissions. Urbanization has a positive impact on carbon emissions. The correlation from carbon emissions to economic growth and transportation is not significant.
