Abstract

The political and diplomatic events dedicated to climate in the first part of 2021, preparing the Glasgow COP-26 in November, mark a breakthrough in the failure caused by COP-25 (2019) and the reprisal of the multi-sided UN approach, under the impulse of the return in force, by the attitude of the Biden administration, of the US in the fight against climate change. In a broader sense, the Leaders' Summit on Climate (22-23 April 2021) and the associated negotiations revive the approach on eco-climatic problematic that allowed and reached the Paris Agreement of 2015, in the way of continuing the preparations and enabling of its system. Adopted as an annex to Decision 1/CP.21 (nonbinding), the conventional text of six years prior is juridical, but in an original formula that gives central place in its implementation to the attitude and will of the states, which can adopt a holistic effort in developing a common action, and through a global response, or on an individual folding, resulting in a general insufficiency. The positions expressed within the Summit of 22-23 April consolidate the former, accentuates the universal vocation of the Agreement, and align the states to the objectives of ambitious mitigation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions up to 2030, and to reach climate neutrality by 2050-2060. In the sense of the same evolutions, climate change has been reinscribed on the agenda of the UN Security Council as an issue of global security. In this new formula, of world leadership competition in the climate action, along with the US and China, the EU remains a fundamental pillar, especially by revising its climatic ambitions, by adopting the Green Deal as a sustainable development strategy, and of the "climate law", as an instrument of legal action. The coupling in the same equation of the objective to limit the increase of global temperature under 20C and the one regarding carbon neutrality imposes an adequate enforcement also regarding the pertinent macroeconomic research and evaluation. Under such premises, promising results are being expected from COP-26 (November 2021, Glasgow). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
