Para ninguno de los tres Estados miembros la protección ambiental representó una prioridad a lo largo de las rondas de negociación. Esto ha sido fuente de análisis y diversas críticas por parte de los grupos ambientalistas, pues argumentan que un acuerdo comercial del siglo XXI no debería evadir la crisis ambiental y climática que padecemos hoy en día. Este texto presenta un resumen del contenido del Acuerdo de Cooperación Ambiental de América del Norte (ACAAN), todavía en vigor, y analiza los cambios que se dan en materia ambiental a partir de la firma del T-MEC y su nuevo acuerdo ambiental, el Acuerdo de Cooperación Ambiental (ACA). Tanto el capítulo 24 del T-MEC consagrado al medio ambiente como el nuevo ACA representan un retroceso y el que se paralicen los avances para la regulación ambiental en la región.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract The renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) culminated in the signing of the new United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) and a series of symbolic changes on environmental issues. Environmental protection was not a priority for any of the three member states during the round of negotiations. This has been analyzed and criticized by environmental groups, who argue that a twenty-first-century trade agreement should not ignore the environmental and climate crisis we are suffering today. This article summarizes the content of the North American Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (NAAEC), still in effect, and analyzes the changes slated for environmental issues with the signing of USMCA and its new environmental accord, the Agreement on Environmental Cooperation (AEC). Both USMCA&#8217;s Chapter 24, dedicated to the environment, and the new AEC are steps backward that paralyze the advances for environmental regulation in the region.]]></p></abstract>
