Sectoral Climate Alliances for Higher Ambitions: Putting Plurilateral Climate Cooperation on the G20 Agenda
This Policy Brief was first published in https://t20ind.org
The Paris Agreement represents the collective ambitions of its signatory countries to limit the global average temperature to well below 2 °C above pre-industrial levels and pursue efforts to limit it to 1.5 °C. Given the limitations of a multilateral format focusing on overarching climate change mitigation goals, recent discussions have focused on establishing plurilateral alliances to supplement the multilateral United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) process. Two such examples are the G7’s proposal for a climate club and the Global Climate Alliance (GCA) proposed by Indian policy actors in the lead-up to the G20 summit in India in 2023. This Policy Brief examines the potential of such plurilateral formats for adopting a sectoral approach and increasing the ambition of industrial decarbonisation by participating countries. It also offers suggestions for the way forward.
