This discussion paper seeks to examine some of the short-term effects of climate change and offer some policy tools that should be urgently implemented.
The institutional dimension of international climate change governance remained protracted because of the very incompatibility between emission targets and economic interests of the parties which are predominantly shaped by business actors and lobbyists. Moreover, the unequal distribution of burden paved the way for a free-rider problem that perpetuated the protracted nature of climate change governance. Currently, we are faced with a set of negative effects of this unresolved issue in many terms.
