Challenges Faced by International Cooperation to Achieve Climate Change. Name: Institution: The challenges of international cooperation to achieve climate change. Climate change is due to increased global warming. This is due to the significant levels of carbon dioxide emitted through the burning of fossil fuels and pollution by mankind. International cooperation has the task of tackling climate change because, in addition to being caused by countless places in every country in the world, its consequences will be so negative that only with international assistance will the world fully adapt to further environmental conditions . International collective action on climate change has only been successful in some parts of the world, for example the Mediterranean Action Plan to reduce pollution in the Mediterranean Sea and the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, a agreement that limits damage to the earth's protective environment. stratospheric ozone layer. First of all, international cooperation. So why has it been so difficult to achieve cooperation on climate change? International cooperation depends on many factors. First, there should be a consensus on the science behind major climate change. The empirical data of an issue should also be clearly delineated. This involves agreement that the problem actually exists and that both the solution and the associated costs and benefits have been clearly identified. It also requires structural changes to energy, transportation and other economic systems. Even more problematic is the fact that the benefits and costs of mitigation are distributed asymmetrically across space
