## Resource

The European Union's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is set to fully phase in by 2026, imposing carbon costs on imports like steel and aluminum. Lucas and Luna break down how this new tariff works, who it affects most—China, India, Turkey—and why it's already reshaping supply chains. They explore the revenue implications, the WTO compliance debate, and whether the US or other regions will follow suit. A concrete look at the economic ripple effects of climate policy on trade. #CarbonBorderTax #CBAM #EuropeanUnion #ClimatePolicy #CarbonPricing #GlobalTrade #SteelIndustry #Aluminum #WTO #SupplyChain #Decarbonization #TradePolicy #Economics #ClimateEconomics #GreenTariff #EUClimateAction #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
