Summary:

In anticipation of Senate deliberation on climate change legislative proposals, GAO was asked to examine how greenhouse gas emissions pricing could potentially affect the international competitiveness of U.S. industries, and to examine trade measures being considered as part of proposed U.S. climate change legislation. On July 6, 2009, we briefed ... covering: (1) what is known about estimating industry effects, (2) examples of industries that may be vulnerable to a loss in international competitiveness from emissions pricing, (3) trade measures and other approaches to address competitiveness issues, and (4) the potential international implications of trade measures. [This report is] copy of the slides presented at the briefing.
