Highlights The effect of carbon tariffs on global carbon emission control is examined. Two specific strategic responses of supply chain managers are explicitly considered. Charging a carbon tariff does not necessarily reduce global emissions. Managerial implications for policymaking are presented via a numerical study.

    Abstract This paper investigates the effect of carbon tariffs on global emission control. We propose a global supply chain model consisting of a retailer in an emission-regulated country and supplier in a non-emission-regulated country. The equilibrium solutions are obtained, and the effects of a carbon tariff on global emission control are studied. Through analytical study and numerical study, we find that a carbon tariff does not necessarily reduce global emissions under certain circumstances. The paper discusses insights and the carbon tariff policy implications from this finding.
