							         <description><![CDATA[A new paradigm is needed to ensure that countries take better advantage of the large potential benefits that can accompany the move towards greener economies. Countries still do not take full account of the costs of inaction on environmental challenges such as climate change, air and water pollution and inefficient use of energy and resources. Such costs of inaction can be considerable, especially for developing countries whose economies rely more heavily on natural resources and where climate change is expected to hit hardest.]]></description>

							         <description><![CDATA[Based on fears that the competitiveness of their domestic industries will be undermined by weak greenhouse gas emission reduction pledges from developing country trading partners, developed countries are calling for border taxes on carbon. But these fears are often exaggerated, and posturing over border taxes diverts attention away from the fundamental need for broad participation in a climate agreement, according to an op-ed by the OECD Secretary-General published in the Financial Times: "Carbon has no place in global trade rules".]]></description>
