    Initiative summary:
    The European Green Deal includes the firm ambition of making Europe climate-neutral by 2050. As long as many international partners do not share the same climate ambition, there is a risk of carbon leakage. Should these differences persist worldwide, a Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism that effectively places a carbon price on imported products for selected sectors, can contribute to managing the risks of carbon leakage, reducing global emissions while keeping the carbon price signal.
