This paper introduces a firm-strategy perspective to the global combat against environmental pollution. We find that U.S. plants release less toxic emissions when their parent firm imports more from low-wage countries (LWCs). Consistent with the Pollution Haven Hypothesis, goods imported by U.S. firms from LWCs are in more pollution-intensive industries; U.S. plants also shift production to less pollution-intensive industries and spend less on pollution abatement when their parent firm imports more from LWCs. The negative impact of LWC imports on toxic emissions is stronger for U.S. plants located in counties with more powerful institutions, but weaker for more-capable U.S. plants and firms. These results highlight the role of local institu...
