"Emissions Trading Systems (ETS) have been hailed as a game changer for the evolving climate crisis. This book provides an in-depth analysis of China's carbon ETS, including its legal and policy frameworks, carbon market mechanisms, and international and comparative implications. With nine cutting-edge topics divided into three thematic parts, this comprehensive book probes the essential concepts, contemporary research, and key elements of carbon emissions trading in China. Multidisciplinary in scope, the book draws on insights from law, policy, economics, environmental management, and geopolitics, to provide a comprehensive and nuanced analysis of the development of carbon emissions trading in China. Placing China's carbon ETS within the broader context of international efforts to address climate change, it provides a comparative perspective with international value. This book will be an essential resource for scholars and researchers of international and comparative climate law and policy, environmental management, economics, and climate politics. It will prove an indispensable guide for students of Chinese law, climate law, environmental policy, and comparative environmental law. Practitioners, policymakers, and government officials working in climate governance seeking the state-of-the-art of the development of ETS in China will also benefit greatly from its insights"--

Dragnet, Columbo, CSI, True Detective, Mindhunter... Depuis leur création dans les années 1950, les séries policières suscitent un engouement qui ne se dément pas. Une telle vitalité ne va pas sans paradoxe : né de la modernité, le récit policier en dresse pourtant un portrait cauchemardesque. Tandis que l'idéologie du progrès triomphe, il s'inquiète du désordre et de la violence qu'elle génère. Néanmoins, le genre n'est pas anxiogène car la promesse à l'horizon du récit policier, c'est celle du rétablissement de l'ordre. Avec le récit policier se joue la catharsis, le drame libératoire de l'expurgation des passions, un drame rassurant renouvelé à chaque nouvel épisode au terme duquel triomphent la justice et le bien. C'est une double fiction à laquelle convie alors la série policière : celle d'un univers criminel exotique où s'exposent les passions humaines les plus crues, et celle d'un univers idéal où bien personnel et bien commun font figure de compas. Pourtant c'est souvent à l'aune du réalisme qu'on mesure la qualité d'une série policière. Dès lors, tiraillée entre fiction et réalisme, ordre et contestation, la série policière se déploie sur un large spectre esthétique et idéologique. À travers l'étude de séries aussi bien mainstream que de niche, sans présupposé de popularité ou de qualité, ce livre démontre la richesse de ce genre pluriforme, entre conservatisme et progressisme.

Courts, regulatory tribunals, and international bodies are often seen as a last line of defense for environmental protection. Governmental bodies at the national and provincial level enact and enforce environmental law, and their decisions and actions are the focus of public attention and debate. Court and tribunal decisions may have significant effects on environmental outcomes, corporate practices, and raise questions of how they may best be effectively and efficiently enforced on an ongoing basis. Environment in the Courtroom, Volume II examines major contemporary environmental issues from an environmental law and policy perspective. Expanding and building upon the concepts explored in Environment in the Courtroom, it focuses on issues that have, or potentially could be, the subject of judicial and regulatory tribunal processes and decisions. This comprehensive work brings together leading environmental law and policy specialists to address the protection of the marine environment, issues in Canadian wildlife protection, and the enforcement of greenhouse gas emissions regulation. Drawing on a wide range of viewpoints, Environment in the Courtroom, Volume II asks specific questions about and provides detailed examination of Canada’s international climate obligations, carbon pricing, trading and emissions regulations in oil production, agriculture, and international shipping, the protection of marine mammals and the marine environment, Indigenous rights to protect and manage wildlife, and much more. This is an essential book for students, scholars, and practitioners of environmental law.

Avec la montée des préoccupations environnementales mondiales, l'importance de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre est plus pressante que jamais. Le secteur du transport, qui est l'un des principaux contributeurs à ces émissions, joue un rôle clé dans cette lutte contre le changement climatique. Sales-Lentz, une entreprise de transport basée au Luxembourg, a décidé de s'engager de manière proactive dans une démarche de décarbonisation en adhérant à l'initiative Net Zero. Ce mémoire explore en profondeur cette démarche de l'entreprise, en mettant l'accent sur l'empreinte carbone de sa flotte de véhicules, qui est sa principale source d’émissions de gaz à effet de serre. Ce mémoire détaille l'origine des émissions de Sales-Lentz, les actions établies pour les réduire et les défis rencontrés lors de la mise en œuvre de ces initiatives. Il examine également les opportunités qui se présentent pour l'entreprise de renforcer ses efforts de réduction des émissions et de contribuer plus activement à la lutte contre le changement climatique.

Climate change mitigation and the Green Deal will remain a central topic for the EU. As a major historical contributor to greenhouse gases, it has the opportunity to reverse this trend of ever more emissions, including by providing a model to leapfrog the carbon age: EU funding and the assessment of state aid and competition law; legal Instruments, including technical standardisation, criminal law sanctions and market-based measures, such as tax incentives or the future extension of emissions trading to consumers; education; the external dimension, a potential new green hegemony and the CBAM; social aspects; climate rights enforcement; and issues arising in specific sectors, including energy, transport, public procurement, urban planning and migration.

Building public support for climate mitigation is a key prerequisite to making meaningful strides toward decarbonization and achieving net-zero emissions. Using nationally representative, individual-level surveys for 28 countries, this paper identifies the current levels and drivers of support for climate mitigation policies. Controlling for individual characteristics, we find that pre-existing beliefs about policy efficacy, perceived costs and co-benefits (e.g., cleaner air), and the degree of policy progressivity are important drivers of support for carbon pricing policies. The knowledge gap about climate mitigation policies can be large, but randomized information experiments show that support increases (decreases) after individuals are introduced to new information on the benefits (potential costs) of such policies.

This Selected Issues paper focuses on policies to address climate change in Ukraine. The war has been a setback to continued progress on Ukraine’s climate objectives. Over the longer term, Ukraine has potential to implement policies that internalize climate-related priorities as well as reconstruction, macroeconomic stability, and social protection priorities. Ukraine is vulnerable to climate change from substantially warmer temperatures and more volatile rainfall patterns that may arise under more severely adverse climate scenarios. Essential investments in climate change adaptation will need to be taken with a view toward avoiding debt vulnerabilities. Ukraine’s investment needs in this area are moderate sized. Ukraine should be in a position to make these investments over the longer term, including after debt sustainability has been restored, without causing debt vulnerabilities to re-emerge. Carbon pricing policies can help achieve climate objectives and deliver significant revenue generation.
