Trade-linked cross-border impacts
Summary
The report serves as a preliminary synthesis of the CASCADES project's WP3, combining quantitative models and qualitative stakeholder analysis to explore how climate change impacts trade-linked systems. It specifically examines food systems, soy supply chains, and energy transition minerals to understand how climate triggers interact with supply chain actors and the policy landscape to affect EU climate resilience.
Key insights
- Trade-linked cross-border climate impacts are identified as a significant risk with the capacity to cause severe disruption to the economy of the European Union, although research into these impacts is currently in a nascent stage.
- The report argues that quantitative models for understanding cascading cross-border impacts should be supplemented with knowledge on how climate triggers evolve through trade systems, interact with supply chain actors, and are influenced by the policy landscape's role as an enabler or barrier to EU climate resilience.
- The analysis within the report focuses on three specific trade-linked case studies: food systems, the soy supply chain, and energy transition minerals.
