Trade-linked cross-border impacts

This report serves as a preliminary synthesis of policy insights from Work Package 3 (WP3) of the CASCADES project, focusing on how trade-linked cross-border climate impacts may disrupt the European economy. It combines quantitative model results with qualitative stakeholder analysis and literature reviews, specifically examining food systems, soy supply chains, and energy transition minerals.

• Trade-linked cross-border climate impacts pose a significant risk of severe disruption to the European economy, although the current research landscape regarding these impacts is still in its early stages.
• To fully understand cascading cross-border impacts, the report argues that quantitative approaches should be paired with knowledge on how climate triggers move through trade systems, how supply chain actors behave, and how the policy environment affects EU climate resilience.
• The report's analysis is structured around quantitative model outcomes and three specific qualitative case studies: energy transition minerals, food systems, and the soy supply chain.
