Abstract
Global policy making is essential for reduction of CO* emission, especially the developing countries, they should obtain economic growth as well as CO2 emission control. When Carbon tax is enforced in Japan, Japanese company will consider Carbon tax as one of their product's production cost. Thus, developing countries will have different effects due to those imported products from Japan. In this paper, CO2 load of 408 products have been calculated using input-output analysis. The rising price of imported products and their effects on each countries have been estimated. The result showed that effects on countries with lower economic growth rate are more due to the enforcement of Carbon tax in Japan.
