Trade Agreements and the Environment

Global Trade and Environment Introduction There is a great relationship between trade and environment. However, this relationship is complex and has been highly debated globally. It is essential to understand and address this relationship in order to provide the sustainable development of trade in different parts of the world. For this reason, the United States of America and the European Commission (EC) have been actively involved in linking the correlation between trade and environment, both at the community and global level in different discussions, negotiations, and encouragement of sustainable trade activities. This study will comprise two parts. The first part will be devoted to the relationship between trade and environment, and the second part will respond to the country level questions with a focus on the United States of America.
