Carbon Border Adjustment: Progress or Peril? (Lecture by Michael KEEN, Ushioda Fellow)

Zoom Webinar (Register here)

Advocates see this as a major advance in the fight against climate change. Opponents see it as opening the door to protectionism. What are the arguments and evidence? Should other countries do the same?
