Abstract
Rees, Wackernagel, and others are shedding new light on environmental burden-shifting processes in the global economy. Distinguishing consumption from production-related ecological impacts in the context of international trade could change our conventional territorial notions of what international environmental externalities are. This, in turn, would have big implications for how international trade and environmental agreements are designed and responsibilities among nations are assigned.
