Uri Dadush & Afaf Zarkik

La Commission Européenne a adopté en Décembre 2019 le pacte vert pour l’Europe, nouvelle stratégie de croissance, visant à mettre l'Europe sur les rails de la transition vers une société neutre pour le climat d’ici 2050. Par ailleurs, le 10 mars 2021, le Parlement européen s’est prononcé en faveur d’un mécanisme d’ajustement carbone aux frontières. Par conséquent, la portée des initiatives politiques énoncées dans le Green Deal s'étendra bien au-delà Frontières de l'UE et vers les pays du sud et le reste du monde. M. Uri Dadush, Senior Fellow au Policy Center for the New South, est l'invité de ce podcast, afin de présenter son nouveau Policy Brief "La Taxe carbone aux frontières risquerait de faire plus de mal que de bien.
