Significance With the advent of China’s national emissions trading system in the past year, carbon prices now cover more than one-fifth of global greenhouse gas emissions. Yet doubts remain over whether they are high enough to force decarbonisation. Impacts Higher carbon prices will be more effective in curbing emissions than the relatively low prices that have prevailed in the past. Germany’s new coalition government will include the Greens and Free Democrats, parties committed to carbon dividends and carbon pricing. The successful rollout of this policy in Germany could serve as a model for Europe and beyond.
