ABSTRACT

The importance and urgency of using ethical principles in the creation and content of climate change policy is well recognised. This article closely examines the World Conservation Union’s (IUCN) engagement in ethical elements of international climate policy for abatement. The primary finding is the use of narrow framing around ‘nature based solutions’. The IUCNs’ own policy references to ethical principles such as fairness and justice are not adequately applied to the content of policy or to its critique. Recommendations are made on how the IUCN (and NGOs generally) could enhance its ethical engagement to act consistently with the claim of moral leadership.

摘要

在制定和改变气候变化政策内容中运用道德原则的重要性和紧迫性已得到公认。本文仔细研究了世界自然保护联盟（IUCN）对减少国际气候政策的道德要素的参与。主要发现是在“基于自然的解决方案”周围使用狭窄的框架。IUCN自己对公平和正义等道德原则的政策参考并未适当地应用于政策的内容或其批评。就世界自然保护联盟（以及世界各地的非政府组织）如何增强其道德参与以与道德领导权的主张保持一致采取行动，提出了建议。
