With China’s rapid economic development in recent years, the scale of foreign direct investment has been expanding.In the meantime, environmental issues have been receiving increasing attention, since the concept of a low carbon economy is prevalent in the world. Secondary Industry is the major energy consumers and the emitted carbon dioxide has a significant negative influence on the environment.This paper discusses the background of low carbon economy and conducts an empirical study of the carbon dioxide emission effect of foreign direct investment in the Secondary Industryin Shandong Province. The conclusion is that foreign direct investment leads to more carbon dioxide emissions, which is not conducive to the development of green productivity and a low carbon economy in Shandong Province.
