Zusammenfassung: 
The EU and the UK both control domestic greenhouse gas emissions through cap-and-trade systems – their Emission Trading Systems. For charging imports a corresponding emission price, they propose Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanisms that take the domestic price and apply it to an unlimited volume of imports. This approach sets the carbon price based solely on the domestic side of the market, leaving the total emissions driven by EU or UK consumption indeterminate. In particular, a technological change reducing the demand for domestic emissions would lower the carbon price, increase imports, and possibly increase global emissions. This paper offers graphical and analytical expositions of this problem and through simulations shows that this perverse effect is likely. It also assesses the practical challenges of combining the ETS and CBAM markets as perfectly manageable.
