Abstract
- The impacts of climate change extend to all countries and continents and have a cross-cutting effect on social, economic and ecological systems. Therefore, it is necessary to work together at the international level to effectively manage this problem. One effective method is to adopt a proper international legal framework. International legal regulation allows for the creation of common standards and rules that are followed by participating countries. The European Union is one of the most important actors in international cooperation on the environment and climate change. It has committed itself to achieving climate neutrality by 2050 and is taking a wide range of measures, including reducing greenhouse gas emissions, supporting renewable energy, and promoting green development. Moreover, the EU provides various instruments and financial support to implement climate change measures. In view of this, it is important to study climate change at the international level, including the role of the EU in this regard. The purpose of the article is to examine the important role of the European Union in environmental diplomacy and combating climate change through international law. The article examines how the EU is an active participant in shaping the international legal regime on climate change. In particular, it participates in negotiations, concludes international agreements, and actively implements and enforces the obligations agreed upon under such agreements, such as the Paris Agreement.
