Abstract
This chapter introduces a Climate Mitigation scenario involving a global carbon tax and decarbonisation of the global power sector. With the fossil-based nature of plastics fundamentally linked to climate change, the aim is to better understand the interlinkages between plastics and climate mitigation policies and to provide insights into synergies and trade-offs between the two policy areas. The chapter compares the effects on greenhouse gas emissions of the Global Ambition scenario presented in Chapter 8 and of the Climate Mitigation scenario, and then looks at the emissions and economic impacts of combining the two in a joint Global Ambition and Climate Mitigation scenario.
