A Study On The Impact Of The BRICS On European Union Global Climate Governance

Climate change is a major problem in present international society,and climate change has become a high-level political issue in the international political field.The United Nations-sponsored climate change conference is an important platform for countries around the world to discuss climate issues,thus has opened the process of global climate governance.The EU is a major participant and has played a leading role in global climate governance in a long term.To participate in global climate governance has become an important platform for the EU to show its values and to exert its international influence.The EU,coordinating the interests of all parties actively,promoting greenhouse gases emission reduction,committed to promoting the international community to achieve a comprehensive and legally binding climate agreement in the climate negotiations,has contributed significantly to the development of the global climate governance process.Climate change is a global problem,climate governance requires not only the developed countries actively involved in,along with the development of emerging economies have begun to play a part.After the global financial crisis,the BRICS countries,as representatives of emerging economies,are increasingly influential in the international community.The BRICS countries are all major emitters of greenhouse gases,which economic strength blurred the boundaries between developing countries and developed countries.And the rise of the BRICS has had a certain impact on the global climate governance.The practice of participation of the BRICS in global climate governance is mainly based on country participation and cooperative participation.The responsibility of the BRICS countries in climate governance has gradually increased.The IBSA,the BASIC and the BRICS mechanism provide a platform for the BRICS countries to participate in global climate governance.With the improvement of BRICS' governance capacity,the BRICS will be more representative and proactive in global climate management.In the climate negotiations,the long-term game of the BRICS and the EU not only shook the dominance of the EU in global climate governance,also innovated in the EU-led global climate governance system,and prompted the unprecedented increase in global climate governance.The principle of Intended Nationally Determined in the climate agreements has broken the barriers between the developed countries and developing countries on national emission reductions responsibility,emission reductions commitments and actions in the UNFCCC and the Protocols.With the improvement of the BRICS' impact in global climate governance,the relation of the EU and the BRICS is from climate game to win-win cooperation.The EU and the BRICS will jointly open a new global climate governance pattern under the principle of “common but differentiated responsibilities”.
