“…While the fact that carbon pricing levels are too low in almost every jurisdiction is the single most important hinderance to their effectiveness meeting the Paris targets (Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition, 2017 [29]) 6 , carbon pricing will also have challenges encouraging material efficiency due to market distortions caused by the sequential nature of decision-making along supply chains, imperfect competition and government intervention to reduce the risk of carbon leakage (Skelton and Allwood, 2017[30]). Compensation mechanisms that reduce the risk of carbon leakage (e.g.…”
