Emission cap results: emission and GDP impact by region (%).

Caption

The figure shows the percentage changes in GDP (dark bars) and CO₂ emissions (light bars) across different regions in Japan under a carbon pricing scenario targeting a 10% national emissions reduction. While emissions decrease in all regions, the economic impacts vary significantly, with most regions experiencing modest GDP losses and a few showing slight gains. These results highlight regional disparities in both mitigation outcomes and economic effects.
