Green Protectionism is not good for the environment

Fredrik Erixon has a good piece in the European Voice detailing the consequences of succumbing to green protectionism.

Citing the EU’s Renewable Energy Directive as a prime example, Mr Erikon warns us that protectionist measures are not good for environmental policy and are likely to increase the cost of reducing emissions, invoke the condemnation of the WTO and, worst of all, incite tit for tat trade disputes.

Sign our petition against green protectionism today and cast a vote for trade’s ability to improve our environment.
