About this title

Synopsis

In this book, Muhammad Ahsan Javed, examines two linked dimensions of international trade: its environmental consequences and its operational machinery. It argues that trade is economically indispensable but environmentally consequential, requiring the integration of sustainability into trade strategies, agreements, and supply chains. The book traces trade from ancient routes (Silk Road) to modern WTO-governed global value chains. Positively, trade enables technology transfer, funds environmental investment, and spreads green consumer awareness. Negatively, it accelerates resource depletion, pollution, and deforestation, and can trigger a "race to the bottom" in environmental standards. Key theories reviewed include the Environmental Kuznets Curve (inverted-U relationship between income and degradation), the Porter hypothesis (regulation stimulates innovation), and the pollution haven versus pollution halo theories .International environmental agreements such as the Kyoto Protocol, CITES, and the Ramsar Convention have achieved mixed results but remain necessary.
