But it at least needs to be noted that it would greatly reduce almost all trade and environment tensions. A host of new issues have risen to prominence since the conclusion of the Uruguay Round, including the need to address environmental subsidies (such as renewable energy subsidies), perverse subsidies (such as fossil fuel subsidies), energy trade, sustainability standards, and green industrial policy tools. But in the absence of an active forum in which to discuss them, such issues will remain lacunae in the global economic architecture. Finding a way to progress the Doha Round, or ways to work around the slow progress in that setting, would allow room to advance in areas that would strengthen the mutual supportiveness between the trade and environmental regimes.
