摘要

The chapter specifically looks at national policy responses in developing countries to reach net zero emissions and elaborates on the comparative disadvantage that these nations have vis-a-vis those of their industrial counterparts, correlating this with the climate commitment being provided by global convention. Amid an ever-greater sense of urgency to fight climate change, countries around the world are realizing that they cannot raise their citizens out of poverty while also exceeding planetary boundaries in the name of economic growth. In addition, the chapter considers the importance of global cooperation and financial assistance to help developing countries achieve their climate goals. This chapter seeks to identify transferable knowledge and best practice examples that inform and encourage robust action by those seeking a pathway towards delivering success on net-zero ambitions in developing contexts.
