  • The G20 Riyadh Summit's Climate Change
    The G20 Riyadh Summit’s Climate Change Performance: A Debt Accrued Brittaney Warren, G20 Research Group January 15, 2021 The G20 leaders met for an unprecedented virtual summit on November 21–22, 2020. They convened in the midst of two converging crises — the health crisis and the climate crisis. The COVID-19 pandemic was the G20’s central focus, but climate was on the agenda too. Saudi Arabia, host of the 2020 Riyadh Summit, promoted “safeguarding the planet” as one of three thematic pillars of its presidency. It included six action areas: managing emissions for sustainable development, combating land degradation and habitat loss, preserving the oceans, fostering sustainable and resilient water systems globally, promoting food security, and promoting cleaner energy systems for a new era. But on climate change, Riyadh’s first priority was the circular carbon economy (CCE). This is a highly controversial approach to meeting global climate goals, as it focuses on managing rather than mitigating or stopping emissions, and as the fossil fuel sector is among its strongest advocates. In addition to prioritizing CCE, and in particular the recirculation of captured carbon back into the fossil fuel sector, the G20 did not improve its performance compared to previous years across most dimensions of summit performance. This importantly included no new money mobilized for climate finance or for a green recovery. As such, the G20 effectively failed to fill the climate governance gap left by the United Nations, whose core climate and biodiversity bodies chose to postpone their summits until 2021. In doing so, the G20 further increased its financial and social debt to society for its members’ historical and projected emissions contribution and the resulting human toll.

  • Remarks by H.E. MURATA Takashi, Ambassador of Japan to Finland, “Online Seminar on Marine Plastic Pollution” on 5 March 2021
    Remarks by H.E. MURATA Takashi, Ambassador of Japan to Finland, “Online Seminar on Marine Plastic Pollution” on 5 March 2021 My name is MURATA Takashi, Ambassador of Japan to Finland. It is my great pleasure to host an online seminar to share Japanese experience with distinguished experts in Finland and Baltic Sea countries on marine environment protection in a challenging COVID-19 pandemic situation. On this opportunity, I wish to say a few words. First, I would like to express my deep appreciation to Rüdiger Strempel, Executive Secretary of HELCOM and its secretariat for their great support in organizing this online seminar. My deepest gratitude also goes to Prof. ISOBE Atsuhiko, Research Institute for Applied Mechanics of Kyushu University, for lecturing at this seminar out of his busy schedule. Prof. Isobe is a Japanese leading expert, who is active domestically and internationally, with physical oceanography as his major field of interest. He is working to elucidate how marine plastic litter is being transported and to predict the amount of floating microplastics in the oceans in 50 years, for the first time in the world, from scientific viewpoint. Now marine plastic litter is one of global environmental challenges that the international community as a whole should address. In virtue of its high-level convenience, plastics are said to be the greatest invention of the 20th century. However, maritime pollution by plastic litter has been spread globally and concern has also increased over adverse effects of the floating microplastics on marine environment and ecosystem in the oceans. The report released by World Economic Forum in 2016 predicted that oceans would contain more plastics than fish by weight by 2050.

  • G20: Political Snapshots of Power Dynamics
    ARI 109/2020 22 September 2020 G20: political snapshots of power dynamics Beatriz Pérez de la Fuente | Policy Officer for Global Economic Issues, European External Action Service Theme How has the G20 evolved politically since the 2017 German Presidency? Summary Through the prism of the G20, the world’s premier forum for international economic cooperation, we have learnt that the complicated challenges of the 21st century cannot be tackled without coordinated and collective action. The gradual expansion of the G20 agenda responds to the fact that managing risks of a non-economic nature, such as geopolitical tensions, climate change, migration and terrorism, have become ever more critical to the stability of the global economy. Agreement has not always been easy and results do not always come swiftly. However, this is how the G20 can make progress. Almost a decade after the financial crisis, we are confronted with an unprecedented global challenge in the form of the COVID-19 pandemic. The crisis has intensified geopolitical rivalries, especially between the US and China, whose bilateral relations matter to global stability. In geopolitics, a nation has no permanent economic competitors, systemic rivals or negotiating partners, but only permanent interests. To some G20 Leaders, their relationships with their peers define their national interests. As with many Summits, the G20 is no exception: what is said behind closed doors can reveal more about current power dynamics than statements made in the public arena. Analysis ‘The significant problems of our time cannot be solved by the same level of thinking that created them’ Albert Einstein A more political G20? While certainly more inclusive than the G7/8, the G20’s wider membership now reflects, more than ever before, the increasingly complex and fraught multipolar order.

  • Creating Compliance with G20 and G7 Climate Change Commitments Through Global, Regional and Local Actors
    Creating Compliance with G20 and G7 Climate Change Commitments through Global, Regional and Local Actors John Kirton, Brittaney Warren and Jessica Rapson University of Toronto Paper prepared for the annual convention of the International Studies Association, April 7–10, 2021. Version of April 1. Key words (three tags): G20, G7, climate change Abstract The greatest global change, where the process of globalization is now complete, is climate change and the existential threats it brings. How do the central global governance institutions of the Group of Seven (G7) major democratic powers from the rich North and the Group of 20 (G20) systemically significant states, including countries of the emerging South, create and comply with commitments to control climate change, by working with key actors at the multilateral, regional, sub-national, local and civil society levels? Using data and previous findings from the Global Governance Program, this paper analyzes how the compliance of G7 and G20 members with their leaders’ summit climate change commitments is affected by invoking the International Monetary Fund and World Bank Group, by invoking the Organisation for Economic Co- operation and Development, European Union, the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement and the Asia- Pacific Economic Co-operation forum, and by invoking local actors such as sub-national states and provinces, cities, and business, as well as Indigenous Peoples. It identifies ways in which the involvement of such “local” actors can improve compliance, through their inclusion in the substance of G7/G20 commitments and through the civil society engagement groups that seek to shape those commitments. It recommends that, to improve compliance, G7 leaders make more climate change commitments, make more highly binding ones, focus them on the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change’s Glasgow Summit and link them to sustainable development.

  • 2019 G20 Osaka Summit Host Prime Minister Abe Failed to Lead on Climate Issue Japan Should Raise Its Ambition Level to Reduce GHG Emissions
    Press Release 2019 G20 Osaka Summit Host Prime Minister Abe Failed to Lead on Climate Issue Japan should Raise its Ambition Level to Reduce GHG Emissions June 29, 2019 Mie Asaoka, President, Kiko Network On June 29, the 2019 G20 Osaka Summit concluded with participants agreeing on a leaders’ declaration. Climate change and energy were important topics on the agenda, and the declaration states that signatories to the Paris Agreement (excluding the United States) “reaffirm their commitment to its full implementation,” and by 2020 “aim to communicate, update or maintain our NDCs” (Nationally Determined Contributions). It also states that they “emphasize the importance of providing financial resources to assist developing countries…” On the other hand, the United States reiterated its position to withdraw from the Paris Agreement, as described in a separate clause of the declaration. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe had emphasized that as host country of the G20 Summit, Japan would demonstrate leadership to address the climate crisis. However, he took a compromising stance from the beginning to reach a consensus, being considerably toned down in deference to US President Donald Trump’s administration. Japan’s watered-down draft led to conflict between the US and European countries over the wording, and jeopardized the agreement at one point. Japan’s weak stance on climate change was a betrayal not only for governments that are already committed to stronger climate action and a coal phase-out, but also for people around the world suffering from a tangible climate crisis. Citizens’ protests were held concurrently in several countries to criticize Japan’s climate policy, especially its promotion of coal power.
