What role should international trade rules and the World Trade
Organization (WTO) play in the protection of the environment? While
many environmentalists argue that trade rules and procedures must
be made more "green," many trade proponents fear that the
international trading system will be undermined by extreme demands
of environmentalists.
In this essay, Gary Sampson scrutinizes these contending views
and assesses the effects of trade liberalization on the
environment; the role of the WTO's dispute settlement mechanism;
the potential impact of WTO rules, including those dealing with
production processes; and the relationship that should exist
between the WTO and specific multilateral environmental
agreements.
In his discussion of these issues, Sampson puts forward a
priority agenda for trade and environmental ministers and proposes
ways to enhance the WTO's environmental protection role and
strengthen the trading system at the same time.
