In　accordance　with　the　commitment　of　China　to　reducing　emissions　consistent　with　the　Kyoto　Protocol,　the　total　carbon　emissions　of　the　nation　mandatorily　require　fair　allocation　to　all　of　the　provinces　in　order　to　properly　handle　the　relationship　between　development　and　emissions　reduction.　The　current　paper　carries　out　an　evaluation　of　the　status　of　carbon　emissions　in　China　for　the　year　2012.　Considering　the　viewpoint　of　Max-min　satisfaction,　the　data　envelopment　analysis　(DEA)　is　applied　for　the　achievement　of　a　fixed　cost　allocation.　Through　the　comparison　of　the　allocated　amount　of　carbon　emissions　with　the　actual　carbon　emissions,　we　perform　an　analysis　and　evaluation　of　the　use　of　carbon　emission　rights　in　all　provinces.　Two　of　the　key　findings　are　presented　as　follows:　The　utilization　rate　of　carbon　emission　in　eastern　China　is　termed　as　the　lowest,　followed　by　the　utilization　in　central　China.　However,　the　utilization　rate　of　carbon　emission　in　the　western　region　is　considered　as　the　best.　On　the　basis　of　our　analysis,　guidelines　are　put　forward　for　a　production　plan　that　incorporates　energy　saving　as　well　as　emission　reduction.
