Vitally important conversation going on about the next steps for EU industrial policy right now, this thread & paper by @nilsredeker.bsky.social & @ph-jaeg.bsky.social is an incredibly useful intervention at a critical time.

With Festivus coming up, it's a good time to think about the US airing its grievances on the WTO's appeals process, which has led to a dispute settlement reform discussion. There have now been some interesting proposals on appeal/review as part of this discussion, which I comment on in this new post

Appeal/Review Proposals under Consideration in the WTO Dispute Settlement Reform Process

This US proposal raised some questions for me, including: - Is the US ready for all the rebalancing arbitrations that might take place? - How will other Members react to this proposal? - Will the Trump administration support this proposal? ielp.worldtradelaw.net/2024/12/the-...

As you read news of the latest climate agreement, struck at COP29 in Baku, you'd be hard-pressed to find a reference to the "landmark" language from Dubai on "transitioning away from fossil fuels" -- there's only an oblique mention of the outcome. www.axios.com/2024/11/23/c...

The EU was taken to task again this week at the WTO over the deforestation regulation, with Brazil and others insisting that the EU notify the EUDR as a "quantitative restriction". The EU refused. The US said it wants an extension to enforcement date. They may get their wish.

1️⃣ The IEA and the OECD have just released their latest combined estimates of the fiscal cost and implicit value of government support for fossil fuels across 82 economies. That value dropped from USD 1.6 trillion in 2022 to USD 1.1 trillion in 2023, but remains above historical trends.

Cost of support measures for fossil fuels decreased sharply in 2023 but remains elevated relative to its historical average

The cost of government support measures for the production and consumption of fossil fuels decreased sharply in 2023, as energy prices softened from the record highs seen in 2022. However, many measur...

📝 ACCTS Chapter 7 dispute settlement on non-implementation/compliance: - No 'sanctions' available in the sense of suspension of concessions - Not entirely 'soft' either, with measures on personnel, suspension of cooperative activities, and what may be termed a 'shaming' mechanism?

The big thing in the FFS Chapter that stands out to me is that it does not apply to production subsidies for oil and natural gas “when granted in the form of tax revenue foregone”. Such forgone revenue constitutes the majority of the production-related support in the OECD Inventory.

Not used to think out loud but in the spirit of the new platform and the new ACCTS—now reading through the fossil fuel subsidies chapter and finding the Specific Exceptions clause intriguing. Is this subpara the first of its kind? Would appreciate signposts to possible precedents.

Starter packs are genius, but I was surprised there wasn't a list of them for people to find. So I built it: blueskydirectory.com/starter-pack... The website monitors the packs being shared and adds the ones it finds to the database. Missed your stater pack? Message me and I'll get it added.

Over one random lunch chat I said I 'do not self-identify as a Gen Z', and I'm feeling that now more clearly than ever with a steep learning curve to get familiar with Bluesky. But anyways, joining the migration, and please could someone hit me with any international law starter packs?
