Why is the EU implementing CBAM?

The EU is leading global efforts to combat climate change through initiatives like the European Green Deal, aiming for a 55% net reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050. The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is a crucial component of this strategy. It addresses the risk of carbon leakage, where companies relocate carbon-intensive production outside the EU to take advantage of less stringent regulations. This mechanism ensures that the EU’s climate efforts remain effective by preventing emissions from shifting outside Europe.
