Trade and climate change: managing policies on the road to net zero<\/strong> (in person and online<\/em>)
Trade and climate change policies have become increasingly interwoven. Subsidies for green industries often provoke tariffs, such as US actions over Chinese solar panels and electric vehicles. The European Union\u2019s Emission Trading System (ETS) has set an increasingly high price on carbon emissions. But if high emission industries like steel, simply relocate and European consumers then buy the imported steel, this \u201ccarbon leakage\u201d undermines the original policy.\u00a0To debate these issues, we bring together one of the designers of the CBAM, former MEP Luis Garicano, an LSE economic policy expert together with Maisa Rojas Corradi from Chile, a representative of the global South who potentially lose out from these policies. Catherine Wolfram who served in Joe Biden\u2019s administration, will give a US perspective.\u00a0Date: September 25, 2024<\/strong>. Location: LSE Old Theatre, London. Register here<\/a>.
