Dynamic Game on Carbon Emission Reduction in Intermodal Supply Chain

With the development of international trade, intermodal operations have become more and more important in goods transportation, in order to show the effect of carbon emission tax on a marine-land intermodal supply chain, this paper use dynamic game theory to get a sub-game Nash equilibrium, and the result of this paper show that the carbon emission tax will lead to sea transport and land transport to reduce the carbon emission of every goods, But the carbon tax is not necessarily guaranteed to reduce the total amount of carbon emissions. meanwhile, one part’s reduction of carbon emission may incentive the other part to reduce carbon emission.
