The International Climate Change Regime Sample Clauses

The International Climate Change Regime. While the issue of climate change has been a topical issue in the international scene within the last two to three decades, it has not always been the case. The phenomenon has been one of the most contentious in the history of the world as there have been issues surrounding whether or not the issue is real. This issue, as apparent from the latest turn of events, especially on President Trump’s reasons for pulling the US out of the Paris agreement (the latest climate change agreement which will be discussed further in this thesis), may not be fixed. The current surge in global support for climate action has been the result of various developments over the years (Bodansky, 2001; Xxxxx, 1997; Cameron & Xxxxxxx, 2001). This section of the thesis reviews literature on the emergence of the international climate change regime. The issues and processes that have led to the formation of the international climate change regime and the various mechanisms that have shaped the regime over the years are reviewed. The section explicitly explores the developments of the regime since the creation of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in 1992.
