Each episode examines a specific mechanism — from EU ETS permit prices to the impact of US Inflation Reduction Act subsidies on corporate balance sheets — and traces how these policies ripple through energy markets, manufacturing, and consumer prices. Lucas brings the numbers and institutional context (how the World Bank's carbon pricing dashboard works, what the Social Cost of Carbon actually measures), while Luna pushes for the practical implications: does a €50 carbon tax actually change behavior? What happens when a steel plant in Germany faces both emission costs and Chinese competition? The show serves investors, policy analysts, and business leaders who need to understand climate-related financial risk without the activism or greenwashing. Listeners walk away able to parse a carbon offset market, evaluate a company's net-zero roadmap, and spot the difference between a real price signal and a political slogan. How do you put a number on a ton of carbon — and who pays when that number is wrong? #CarbonPricing #GreenPolicy #SustainabilityCosts #EUETS #Infla…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T06:19:03.667812+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781"},"episode":{"title":"Why the EU Carbon Border Tax Is Reshaping Global Trade","slug":"why-the-eu-carbon-border-tax-is-reshaping-global-trade-2","published_at":"2026-07-14T19:19:17+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/why-the-eu-carbon-border-tax-is-reshaping-global-trade-2","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0111.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/climate-economics/episode-0111.mp3","summary":"Episode 111 of Climate Economics with Fexingo dives into the European Union's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), which started its transitional phase in October 2023 and is set to impose full import tariffs on carbon-intensive goods by 2026. Lucas and Luna break down how CBAM works, why it targets sectors like steel, aluminum, cement, and fertilizer, and what it means for emerging economies. They walk through a concrete example: a Turkish steel exporter facing a 20% cost increase on shipments to Rotterdam. The hosts also explore the geopolitical pushback — from China and India at the WTO, to U.S. calls for a carbon club — and debate whether CBAM is a climate solution or a protectionist tool in disguise. No fluff, just the mechanics and implications of the world's first climate tariff. #EU #CarbonBorderTax #CBAM #ClimatePolicy #GlobalTrade #GreenTariffs #SteelIndustry #Cement #Fertilizer #WTO #CarbonPricing #Decarbonization #EmergingMarkets #Protectionism #IndustrialPolicy #Economics #ClimateEconomics #FexingoBusiness Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"Episode 111 of Climate Economics with Fexingo dives into the European Union's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), which started its transitional ph…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":806,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/episodes/why-the-eu-carbon-border-tax-is-reshaping-global-trade-2/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/climate-economics-with-fexingo-carbon-pricing-green-policy-and-sustainability-costs-7871781/why-the-eu-carbon-border-tax-is-reshaping-global-trade-2.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
