The Paris Agreement advances a heterogeneous approach to international climate cooperation. Such an approach may be undermined by carbon leakage—the displacement of emissions from states with more to less stringent climate policy constraints. Border carbon adjustments offer a promising response to leakage, but they also raise concerns about their compatibility with international trade law. This Article provides a comprehensive analysis of border carbon adjustments and proposes a way to design them that balances legal, administrative, and environmental considerations.

设计边界碳调整以加强气候行动

《巴黎协定》推动了国际气候合作的多样化方法。这种方法可能会受到碳泄漏的破坏——即从气候政策限制更严格的国家转移到不那么严格的排放量。边境碳调整提供了对泄漏的有希望的反应，但它们也引起了人们对其与国际贸易法的兼容性的担忧。本文对边境碳调整进行了全面分析，并提出了一种平衡法律、行政和环境因素的设计方法。
