The main purpose of this paper has been to provide an understanding of the linkages between trade and climate change. The material reviewed shows that trade intersects with climate change in a multitude of ways. This is due to the innumerable implications that climate change may have in terms of its potential impacts on trade, agricultural, non-agricultural and the profound regulatory and economic changes that will be required to mitigate and adapt to these impacts.
