Let us start from a mundane level. At the heart of the problem is the distinction between weather and climate. As Edward Lorenz put it,
“climate is what you expect, weather is what you get”. In the twenty-first century, climate is what you affect, weather is what gets you.

Climate change emerged in the late 20th century as a topic of global concern and thus a prominent foreign policy issue. Academic scholarship on the international community’s response to the environmental threat was not
far behind. Scholars apply a number of theoretical constructs in their search to explain why states behave the way they do in their coordinated approaches to addressing climaterelated activities.

India and China were targeted by Western nations for their opposition to a
promise to “phase out” coal when negotiating the final agreement in Glasgow. Instead, the two decided to “phase down” coal, causing dismay and alarm about the world’s ability to keep global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Prime Minister Narendra Modi committed, among other things, to achieve net-zeroe missions by 2070, to reduce carbon emissions by one billion tonnes by 2030, and to increase the number of renewable resources in the energy mix to 50%.

CSE researchers say while CoP26 acknowledged that the threat of climate change is real and that urgent actions are needed, it did nothing to raise the commitments to cut greenhouse gas emissions; instead, it highlighted the deep distrust between the already rich and the emerging world, and did
little to acknowledge that combatting climate change requires cooperation at a scale never seen before.
