We study how trade policy can reduce global emissions. Unilateral carbon border taxes have limited efficacy at cutting foreign emissions. By contrast, coordinated trade penalties under a climate club prove highly effective.

Our paper is officially out π We argue that climate clubs show promise: - A climate club with coordinated penalties could curb 68% of excess emissions from free-riding -Unilateral carbon tariffs? Not nearly as effective

Starting to think that we should sort out a general agreement on trade and tariffs, perhaps housed under some sort of world trade organization. Let's keep the region strong with some kind of of north american free trade agreement. Perhaps a trans pacific partnership could soften China's influence.

My undergrad students are asking for material on current tariffs. The issue is most of what Iβve found includes bold political commentary, so I donβt feel comfortable sharing it with my class. Iβm wondering how best to approach this in my class: Stay objective/academic or just call them stupid.
