摘要

Outstanding public debts constrain a government's ability to address climate and environmental issues. We investigate the green impact of debt overhang using China's local government debt restructuring in 2015. Cities with previously heavier debt burdens subsequently experience larger improvements in air quality after debt restructuring. We also find larger increases in environmental penalties and polluting firms obtaining more green patents. Within a city, the impact is more pronounced in areas with higher initial pollution. Alternative factors such as environmental inspection movements and other city-level characteristics cannot fully explain our results. Our paper offers novel supporting evidence for debt-for-climate/nature swap arrangements.
