Abstract

Als wirksamstes Mittel zur Beschränkung des weltweiten Ausstoßes von Treibhausgasen – insbesondere von CO2 – und somit zur Bekämpfung des Klimawandels wird gemeinhin die Einführung eines weltweit gültigen Emissionshandelssystems angesehen. Ein solches System beschränkt effektiv den Ausstoß von CO2 und sorgt zugleich dafür, dass die Vermeidung von CO2-Ausstoß kosteneffizient erfolgt. Der Weg zu einem solchen System ist sicherlich noch sehr weit, als ermutigend ist aber anzusehen, dass es mehr und mehr Länder bzw. Regionen gibt, die derartige Systeme einführen oder über eine Einführung nachdenken. Zugleich ist aber auch festzustellen, dass das derzeit wichtigste Handelssystem, das Europäischen Emissionshandelssystem (EU ETS), nicht so reibungslos funktioniert, wie es wünschenswert wäre. Dieser Beitrag zur Reihe »Kurz zum Klima« fasst die weltweiten Entwicklungen zusammen und geht auf die aktuellen Probleme im EU ETS ein.
