Abstract

Abstract The bioeconomy development is an important strategy for increasing sustainability and to achieve European Green deal. Environmental taxes are one of the most important tools for the development of the bioeconomy. The research aim is to compare the role of environmental taxes in countries with different levels of economic development: Lithuania and Georgia. The authors explore the following question: whether the policy of environmental taxes can contribute to the development of bioeconomy. Research results show that aims of bioeconomy and environmental taxes are the same and contribute to solving several societal challenges. Environmental taxes in Lithuania are more important and help to development bioeconomy. Lithuania does not yet levy a carbon tax, although it participates in the EU emissions trading system. Having started to implement the Green Deal, Lithuania will have to apply carbon taxes and other environmental taxes. Environmental tax burden in Georgia is very low, but this country has the potential to develop the bioeconomy.

环境税在生物经济发展中的作用——以立陶宛和格鲁吉亚为例

摘要生物经济发展是提高可持续性和实现欧洲绿色协议的重要战略。环境税是发展生物经济最重要的工具之一。这项研究的目的是比较环境税在不同经济发展水平的国家中的作用：立陶宛和格鲁吉亚。环境税政策是否有助于生物经济的发展。研究结果表明，生物经济和环境税的目标是一致的，有助于解决几个社会挑战。立陶宛的环境税更为重要，有助于发展生物经济。立陶宛虽然参与了欧盟排放交易体系，但尚未征收碳税。在开始实施绿色协议后，立陶宛将不得不征收碳税和其他环境税。格鲁吉亚的环境税收负担很低，但该国有发展生物经济的潜力。
