Using panel data, we find evidence for significant direct and indirect effects of trade on carbon emissions. Trade tends to increase the emissions burden, especially in those less industrialized countries. We also find evidence for a U-shaped relationship between income per capita and carbon emissions. We discuss the effectiveness of emission reduction policies in light of these results and advance some proposals to reconcile environmental and trade policymaking. A partir de donnees de panel, nous constatons que le commerce a des effets directs et indirects significatifs sur les emissions de carbone. Le commerce tend a accroitre la charge des emissions, particulierement dans les pays moins industrialises. Les donnees mettent egalement en evidence une relation en forme de U entre le revenu par habitant et les emissions de carbone. Au vu de ces resultats, nous evaluons l’efficacite des politiques de reduction des emissions et formulons des propositions pour concilier l’elaboration des politiques commerciales et celle des politiques environnementales
