Im EWI/BET-Gutachten taucht der Begriff auf 259 Seiten nur 1 einziges mal auf (außer in Szenarionamen der Studien).

US EPA proposes end to mandatory greenhouse gas reporting
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency proposed on Friday a rule to end a mandatory program requiring 8,000 facilities to report their greenhouse gas emissions - an effort the agency said was burdensome to business, but which leaves the public without transparency around the environmental impact of those sources.

I was shocked when I first saw these results from standard climate models used in IPCC reports: for high emissions, the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC shuts down in all 9 models that ran past 2100, and is well on the way to shutdown by 2100.

Ever heard of a reverse waterbed effect?
For example:
BEV subsidies in one (EU ETS) country
-> electricity demand rises
-> ETS prices go up
-> faster decarbonisation in other (ETS) sectors/countries

Germany's eco-tax reform led to sizable reductions not only in carbon emissions but also in harmful local air pollutants. Benefits accrued disproportionately to lower-income and more polluted areas.
