What would ecological climate change law look like? Developing a method for analysing the international climate change regime from an ecological perspective

Statements and commitments made in the climate change treaties record the desire of their parties to preserve ecosystem functionality and situations that depend on this as an outcome of their collective response to global warming. Despite this, little attention has been given in climate law literature to the appropriateness of the legal framework they establish for achieving their stated ecological goals. This may be due in part to the lack of a method for analysing the climate change treaties from an ecological perspective. This article seeks to develop such a method by considering the key questions that States would need to answer when formulating a treaty for combating global warming in ways that advance goals associated with maintaining current structures and functions of ecosystems. It also identifies ways in which detailing of the Paris Agreement’s provisions could be used to promote ecosystem preservation as an outcome of international climate action.

生态气候变化法将是什么样?开发一种从生态学角度分析国际气候变化制度的方法

在气候变化条约中所作的声明和承诺记录了当事方保留其生态系统功能和状况的愿望,而这正是它们对全球变暖做出集体反应的结果。尽管如此,气候法文献很少关注它们为实现既定的生态目标而建立的法律框架的适当性。这可能部分是由于缺乏从生态角度分析气候变化条约的方法。本文旨在通过考虑各国在制定抗击全球变暖的条约时需要解决的关键问题,以推进与维持当前生态系统结构和功能有关的目标,来开发这种方法。
