Set climate conditions for trade and imports

Warren proposes requiring countries to join the Paris Climate Agreement and eliminate domestic fuel subsidies before they can enter trade negotiations with the United States. She also proposes a border carbon adjustment on carbon-intensive imported goods, aimed at discouraging companies from shifting production to countries with weaker greenhouse gas standards. She would seek an agreement to protect subsidies for green products and preferential treatment for green energy from World Trade Organization challenges.
