【メッセージ】

Climate change is a major threat to humanity and can only be limited to acceptable levels by a fast and comprehensive energy transition away from fossil fuels. Sustainable energy and climate policy, however, cannot go without pricing carbon. Carbon markets are the most promising policy tool to achieve absolute volume emission reduction at low cost without compromising on climate justice, but they also need to be politically feasible. They are spreading across the globe and linking domestic schemes even improves their sustainability. Due to political constraints, however, Japan has only limited experiences with carbon markets. Hence, in interdisciplinary and international collaboration we identify the chances and obstacles of sustainable carbon markets. We apply sustainability and political economics’ methodologies and analyze international experiences on a comparative case studies basis. By doing so, we hope to contribute our share to a sustainable solution of the climate crisis.
