It examines carbon emissions embedded in global value chains, the links between shifting comparative advantages and extreme weather, and the role of adaptation through green goods, services, and low-carbon technologies. The framework also addresses environmental policy tools, including the carbon border adjustment mechanism, and country-level diagnostics for translating findings into actionable trade strategies.","Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nThe Trade and  \nClimate Change Nexus  \nThe Urgency and Opportunities for Developing Countries  \nPaul Brenton and Vicky Chemutai  \nTHE TRADE AND CLIMATE CHANGE NEXUS  \nTHE TRADE AND CLIMATE CHANGE NEXUS  \nThe Urgency and Opportunities for Developing Countries  \nPaul Brenton and Vicky Chemutai  \n© 2021 International Bank for Reconstruction and Development / The World Bank  \n1818 H Street NW, Washington, DC 20433  \nTelephone: 202-473-1000; [Internet: www.worldbank.org](Internet: www.worldbank.org)  \nSome rights reserved  \n1 2 3 4 24 23 22 21  \nThis work is a product of the staff of The World Bank with external contributions.
