We compare several options for a border adjustment to the European Union Emission Trading  System. We discuss their WTO‐compatibility and provide a quantitative assessment based on the ...

The objective set by the IPPC of limiting the increase in average global temperature to +2°C compared to the pre-industrial era is now accepted by all concerned. This ambitious objective was recognised at the Copenhagen Conference in 2009 and confirmed at Cancun in 2010. There are still no...
