The Regime Complexes for Global Climate Governance

Abstract

Climate change is a major challenge for human society in the 21st century and an important issue in the context of sustainable development governance. As the density of institutions in global climate governance increases, so does the potential for overlap and interaction between the various elements of institutions. The current global climate governance issue is no longer solely a state-centric governance model but presents a complex manifestation of a complex of mechanisms. Taking a global climate governance perspective, this paper finds that the institutional complex of global climate governance is shaped by internal factors, such as self-attribution, rights, and interest linkages. External factors include the rapid development of globalization and the non-governmental state of the international community. The internal logic of the institutional complex is based on the institutional fragmentation of multiple interested parties involved in the governance process and the interaction patterns of internal actors. The institutional complex of global climate governance has the following implications for policy-making: the strength of the institutional complex refers to the framework of decision-making; the flexibility of the arguments provides stakeholders with demands related to their interests and inspires different countries to join in the governance of global climate change.

Ecological Benefits and Plant Landscape Creation in Urban Parks: A Study of Nanhu Park, Hefei, China

“…Global climate change has brought on serious ecological challenges [1][2][3], and researchers have mainly elaborated on the current problems from various aspects such as nature (plant growth [4,5], land desertification [6,7]), national economy [8,9], agriculture [10][11][12]), and society (policy guidelines [13,14], urban construction [15,16], human health [17][18][19][20]). To cope with climate change and alleviate the deterioration of the environment, China has incorporated the "dual-carbon" policy into the construction of ecological civilization and the "14th Five-Year Plan" [21,22] to respond to the transformation and upgradation of contemporary society.…”

Developing climate governance strategies in Nigeria: An emphasis on methane emissions mitigation

“…Furthermore, Huang et al (2020) was of the opinion that climate governance opens up diverse opportunities for stakeholder engagement. Zhang and Bai (2023) highlighted that climate governance is transitioning from a focus on negotiation to a practiceoriented approach that involves a variety of stakeholders and multi-faceted institutional frameworks. Moreover, Hopkins et al (2016) determined that addressing methane emissions in urban environments necessitates concerted research to pinpoint specific mitigation objectives, the adoption of innovative abatement strategies, and vigilant atmospheric methane monitoring to verify the efficacy of these mitigation actions.…”
