However international differences in carbon control policies may cause not only carbon leakage but also competitiveness disadvantages. In this context, border carbon adjustments are a promising tool for discouraging these problems. But designing a real-world border carbon adjustment instrument implies to consider significant issues: technical feasibility, data availability, the risk of retaliation from developing countries, and its compatibility within the World Trade Organization legal framework. ...11 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Elsevier B.V., 2018http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/esCarboniEconomia ambientalContaminació atmosfèricaCanvi climàticCarbonEnvironmental economicsAtmospheric pollutionClimatic changeBorder Carbon Adjustments Based on Avoided Emissions: Addressing the Challenge of Its Designinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6735602017-10-04info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
