IISD - Trade and Climate Change:Issues in Perspective

In June 2008, IISD collaborated with the Government of Denmark, the German Marshall Fund and the International Centre for Trade and Sustainable Development to convene a major seminar on trade and climate change in Copenhagen. The event's background papers have been revised and finalized, and constitute excellent brief surveys of the key issues in each of the six areas covered: (1) Liberalization of Trade in Environmental Goods for Climate Change Mitigation: The Sustainable Development Context (2) Border Carbon Adjustment (3) Embodied Carbon in Traded Goods (4) Climate Change, Technology Transfer and Intellectual Property Rights (5) Clean Energy Investment (6) Standards, Labelling and Certification. The event's summary remarks are contained in this comprehensive report that covers all the themes from this meeting. Support for this event came from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, the Government of Denmark and the German Marshall Fund.
