摘要：The prospect of success in fighting global climate change is to decouple economic growth from the heavy use of fossil fuel and to shift to a low-carbon economy. Nonetheless, the economic analysis of this profound transformation has been significantly hindered by the conventional marginal analysis which always gets some paradoxical policy recommendations, for example it usually concludes that mitigation is a burden on economic growth .In our view, industrial transformation exhibits a topological structure changes via drastic revolution in specialization and division of labour. By employing an inframarginal general equilibrium model, this paper shows that unilateral carbon mitigation policy could actually represent an opportunity to stimulate the evolution of industrial structures to a more competitive one, which in turn leads to a period of sustained economic growth and without need the government to choose the winner. And we also complete the police implication simulation about three parametric variations.
