영문 초록

Purpose - Abnormal weather conditions are serious around the world. Most of countries are planning environmental policies under the Convention on Climate Change. Carbon labeling is also one of the policies for environmental policies. However, the use of carbon labeling is likely to cause trade disputes. The higher the use of carbon labeling, the greater the possibility of trade disputes. The dispute over carbon labeling should be resolved by the WTO agreement. The purpose of this paper is to discuss a review on the applicability of carbon labeling to the WTO/TBT. Design/Methodology/Approach - We used the secondary data such as convention article, report and news article. Especially, we looked into the TBT Agreement and GATT Agreement. Because the two agreements are representative of the norms related PPM, NPR-PPM and like products. In order to analyze the issue regarding ’PPM’, ’NPR-PPM’ and ’Like products’, we also examined cases of dispute. Findings - If carbon labeling is recognized as a technical regulation, it will be able to determine whether the carbon labeling is applied TBT measures. The TBT Agreement is an agreement embodied from Articles 19 and 20 of the GATT and can be said to be an evolutionary or advanced form of GATT regulation. Climate change measures include a number of NPR-PPM regulations, so if only GATT regulations were applied, they would create an imbalance problem. Therefore, it is necessary to expand the scope of the technical provisions of the TBT Agreement. Research Implications - Carbon labeling refers to carbon emissions based on LCA. This may be the case with NPR-PPM, which is increasing in the climate change regime. It is expected that the expansion of TBT’s technical regulations will contribute to the harmony of environment and trade.
