The Paris Agreement on climate change revolves around nationally determined contributions (NDC) and acknowledges that the ambition of the global climate response will be determined by Parties’ understanding of their national interests. Initiatives currently envisaged in NDCs are insufficient to avoid disastrous climate change. Debates about the impact of climate action on economic development and national interests have abated the climate ambition of some governments. Conflicting modeling approaches have contributed to these debates. To scale up global climate efforts, it will be essential to convince Parties that the short-term benefits of robust national climate action outweigh its immediate costs. Innovation is driving progress to address climate change and can deliver substantial development co-benefits, particularly by reducing costs of renewable energy technologies and enabling new business models. However, innovation can take many years to reach deployment stage, can create unforeseen problems of its own, and does not benefit all equally. Climate justice links human rights, development and climate regimes. A climate justice perspective provides a normative, analytical and procedural framework to identify barriers to innovation diffusion, optimize development co-benefits of climate action and help build public support for the adoption of more ambitious NDC pledges.

协调国家利益和全球气候正义：人权在增强国家自主贡献以对抗气候变化的雄心中的作用

《巴黎气候变化协定》围绕国家自主贡献（NDC）展开，并承认全球应对气候变化的雄心将取决于各缔约方对其国家利益的理解。目前，国家自主贡献中设想的举措不足以避免灾难性的气候变化。关于气候行动对经济发展和国家利益的影响的辩论，减轻了一些政府的气候野心。冲突的建模方法促成了这些辩论。为了扩大全球气候努力的规模，至关重要的是说服各缔约方，强有力的国家气候行动的短期利益大于其眼前的代价。创新正在推动解决气候变化的进步，并可以带来巨大的发展共同收益，特别是通过降低可再生能源技术的成本并启用新的业务模式。但是，创新可能需要很多年才能达到部署阶段，可能会产生无法预料的问题，并且不能平等地受益。气候正义将人权，发展与气候制度联系在一起。气候正义的观点提供了一个规范，分析和程序框架，以查明创新扩散的障碍，优化气候行动的发展共同利益，并帮助建立公众对采用更大胆的国家自主贡献的支持。
