Climate Change Agreement 2015 (Communication)
The EU Commission argues in favour of including all major "economies and economic sectors" into an international climate change agreement with legally binding emission reductions and introducing carbon pricing for international aviation and maritime transport.
cepPolicyBrief
Including all major "economies and economic sectors" relieves the problem of carbon leakage to third-party countries and opens up new cost-effective reduction potential. Carbon pricing for international aviation and maritime transport should not be determined by policy but by including these sectors into an emissions trading system.
