本論文は、EUのCBAMがWTO協定に適合するかという問題に対し、独自の「プリム・レックス理論」に基づく「気候適合認証」制度を提案する。製品の炭素フットプリントとGCSOS三色ゾーニング（緑・黄・赤）を用い、緑は無税、黄は気候調整税、赤は輸入禁止とする。これにより、WTOの内国民待遇原則に適合しつつ、貿易と気候ガバナンスを統合する新たな枠組みを提示する。
English
This paper addresses the WTO compatibility of the EU's CBAM by proposing a 'Climate Compatibility Certification' system based on the Prim-Lex Theory. It introduces a three-color zoning (green, yellow, red) for products based on carbon footprints, with green enjoying zero tariffs, yellow subject to climate adjustment taxes, and red facing import bans. This framework aims to align with WTO national treatment principles while integrating trade and climate governance.

📄 Abstract（原文）
On January 1, 2026, the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) officially entered its enforcement phase, marking the arrival of the “carbon tariff” era in global trade governance. However, the unilateral design of CBAM faces severe challenges to its WTO compatibility. In July 2026, Russia formally requested the establishment of a dispute settlement panel at the WTO, alleging that CBAM violates core GATT principles including most-favored-nation treatment and national treatment. China also proposed multilateral discussions on CBAM at the WTO Committee on Trade and Environment, receiving broad attention. Based on the complete theoretical system of Prim-Lex Theory (Economic Climatology)——the Fourfold Prim-Fire (Physical Prim-Fire, Animal Prim-Fire, Plant Prim-Fire, and Prim-Fire of Mind), the GC⁴A three-tier governance architecture (first-order hard boundaries, second-order spatial regulation, third-order derivative protocols), the Five-Element dynamic coupling equations, the Eight-Dimensional Framework, and the Prim-Nexus Guidance——this paper proposes replacing the unilateral CBAM dispute-oriented mechanism with “Climate Compatibility Certification + Product Lifecycle GCSOS Zoning Certification.” It designs a global trade compliance system based on product carbon footprints and GCSOS three-color zoning: green-zone products enjoy most-favored-nation zero-tariff treatment, yellow-zone products are subject to climate adjustment taxes, and red-zone products are prohibited from import or subject to punitive tariffs. The paper demonstrates how three-color zoning can achieve WTO compliance through a pathway ensuring “treatment no less favorable than that accorded to EU products,” realizing a paradigm upgrade from “carbon border adjustment” to “climate compatibility certification” in trade rules. This paper elaborates in detail the specific applications, mathematical expressions, data collection sources, and empirical cases of each dimension of the Eight-Dimensional Framework in global trade governance, providing a complete mathematical foundation and operational pathway for the transition of global trade climate governance from unilateral disputes to multilateral coordination.
