The governance of climate change has traditionally been conceived as an issue international co-operation and considered through the lens regime analysis. Increasingly, scholars global have highlighted multiple parallel initiatives involving a range actors at different levels which this is being addressed. In paper, we argue that phenomenon warrants re-engagement with some conceptual cornerstones studies. We highlight challenges posed by increasing involvement non-nation-state (NNSAs) in...
Abstract In 2015, the United Nations agreed on 17 Sustainable Development Goals as central normative framework for sustainable development worldwide. The effectiveness of governing by such broad global goals, however, remains uncertain, and we lack comprehensive meta-studies that assess political impact goals across countries globally. We present here condensed evidence from an analysis over 3,000 scientific studies published between 2016 April 2021. Our findings suggests have had some...
With a focus on key themes and debates, this article aims to illustrate assess how the interaction between justice politics has shaped international regime defined nature of agreement that was signed in COP21 Paris. The work demonstrates despite rise neo‐conservatism self‐interested power politics, questions global distributive remain central aspect climate change. However, while it is relatively easy demonstrate not beyond reach moral contestations, assessment exactly much impact policies...
Abstract Solar geoengineering is gaining prominence in climate change debates as an issue worth studying; for some it even a potential future policy option. We argue here against this increasing normalization of solar speculative part the portfolio. contend, particular, that at planetary scale not governable globally inclusive and just manner within current international political system. therefore call upon governments United Nations to take immediate effective control over development...
There is general agreement across the world that human-made climate change a serious global problem, although there are still some sceptics who challenge this view. Research in organization studies on topic relatively new. Much of research, however, instrumental and managerialist its focus ‘win-win’ opportunities for business or treatment as just another corporate social responsibility (CSR) exercise. In paper, we suggest not an environmental problem requiring technical managerial solutions;...
Abstract Contestations over justice and equity in the climate regime provide most striking evidence of quest by relevant actors to ensure that institutions for global environmental governance are based on widely shared ethical standards responsibility fairness. This review article examines recent policy debates literature distributive highlights some areas key research. The indicates while discussions have gained ascendency within international circle with noticeable impacts, a lot remains...
Abstract The Sustainable Development Goals aim to improve access resources and services, reduce environmental degradation, eradicate poverty inequality. However, the magnitude of burden that would arise from meeting needs poorest is under debate—especially when compared much larger burdens rich. We show ‘Great Acceleration’ human impacts was characterized by a Inequality’ in using damaging environment. then operationalize ‘just access’ minimum energy, water, food infrastructure. achieving...
Climate change challenges contemporary management practices and ways of organizing. While aspects this challenge have been long recognized, many pertinent dimensions are less effectively articulated. Based on literature insights from articles submitted to special issue, the guest editors issue highlight some posed by climate government business, indicate range options approaches being adopted address these challenges.
Corporate climate strategies are shaped by a complex interplay of various market and non-market factors. This article investigates the impact two principal drivers—competitive dynamics regulatory pressure—on carbon management some most energy-intensive UK-listed companies. Despite significant increase in awareness its potential strategic importance, so far there is little approaches these organizations to suggest that change has strongly altered competitive field or induced radical...
Ethiopia has recently committed to economic transformation and industrialisation through a low-carbon development trajectory. Existing literature highlights innovation as critical driver of industrialisation, the need for 'green' innovations improve resource productivity reduce pollution. However, empirical studies investigating nexus between green systems in developing countries are limited. Based on nine semi-structured interviews survey 117 firms, this article assesses sectoral Ethiopia's...
The concept of 'sustainable industrialisation' is now integral to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. However, there are no historical examples or current models emulate. Scholarly analyses putative initiatives green industrialisation, especially in developing countries, few and limited. This article explores conception implementation industrialisation Ethiopia, one world's poorest nations, where an ambitious Climate Resilient Green Economy (CRGE) strategy has been created, alongside a...
We are in the middle of a planetary crisis that urgently requires stronger modes earth system governance. At same time, calls for justice becoming increasingly pronounced sustainability research: there can be no effective stewardship without justice. Rapid planetary-scale processes have reinforced and further created vast injustices at international, national, subnational levels. Often, burden has fallen most severely on poor marginalized communities. Yet literature tends to stay level ideal...
Abstract Non-technical summary We identify a set of essential recent advances in climate change research with high policy relevance, across natural and social sciences: (1) looming inevitability implications overshooting the 1.5°C warming limit, (2) urgent need for rapid managed fossil fuel phase-out, (3) challenges scaling carbon dioxide removal, (4) uncertainties regarding future contribution sinks, (5) intertwinedness crises biodiversity loss change, (6) compound events, (7) mountain...
Contestations over justice and equity in international environmental regimes present striking evidence of the struggle to create institutions for global governance that are based on widely shared ethical standards responsibility accountability. Focusing two key norms—the common heritage mankind (CHM) but differentiated (CDR)—this paper highlights four factors affect influence moral norms regimes: (i) source force articulation; (ii) nature issue-area; (iii) “moral temper” community; (iv)...
Decarbonising the transport sector in Global South presents an opportunity to contribute towards achieving net-zero by mid-century. Several studies have modelled different pathways decarbonise system, but consensus is unclear due heterogeneous nature of technologies, infrastructure, locations, and consumers. In this sense, study applies a systematic quantitative review investigate progression low carbon identified how can increasingly carbon-constrained world. The results show that while...
