| Abstract | The legal analysis of the sustainability of the EU-Mercosur Agreement finds that the agreement has the potential to undermine the EU’s existing commitments to mitigate the climate crisis and stand in the way of green policies adopted in the future. The core issue that emerges from the study is that the EU-Mercosur Agreement is likely to force the EU to contribute to rising global emissions by obliging it to increase trade in emission-intensive goods. |
