| contents | Climate change and environmental concerns represent a global crisis accompanied by significant economic challenges. Regular international conferences held to address these issues, such as in the UK (2021) and Egypt (2022), spark debate about the effectiveness and practicality of international commitments. This study examines international treaties from a different perspective, emphasizing the need to understand the power dynamics and stakeholder interests that delay logical actions to mitigate anthropogenic contributions to climate change and their impacts. Environmental and social concerns tend to increase within nations as their economies develop, where they fight to keep acceptable standards of living while reducing emissions volume. So, nations play disproportionate roles in global decision-making based on the size of their economies. Addressing climate change requires a paradigm shift to emphasize acknowledging and adhering to global commitments through civil pressure, rather than relying on traditional yet biased systems of international political diplomacy. Here, climate-friendly actions are evaluated and ideas to promote such activities are proposed. We introduce a "transition regime" as a solution to this metastasis challenge which gradually infects all nations. |
