The Copenhagen negotiations, described as “Brokenhagen” by critics, marked a turning point in global climate policy. Expectations for a new agreement on climate protection and support, which would finally address injustices, were high. After nearly two decades, there have been large differences between groups of countries in negotiations on how to mobilize climate finance (Ciplet et al. 2015). There has been a gap in the level of adaptation capacity available to developing countries in relation to any assessment of adaptation needs. The Copenhagen Accord and the 2010 Cancun Accords promised developing countries$ 30 billion in short-term fast-start financing for the period 2010-2012 and a “scale” of $100 billion per year by 2020. However, the actual meaning of these numbers depended on the interpretation of the text`s key phrases, many of which were loose or even undeterined at all (Roberts and Weikmans 2017).

In our interviews with delegates from different blocs during these negotiations, very different interpretations were inferred. The dynamic elements give both pillars a forward-looking component. Indeed, we are adding emission commitments for 2030 to the RE pillar and the climate damage expected in 2030 is being added to the ATP pillar. For ER, the first pillar, we are looking for unconditional DNNs that are publicly available – that is, emission reduction commitments by 2030. As a first step, when a country has submitted a NSP, we calculate total emissions from 2015 to 2030 assuming a linear annual decrease/increase from the 2014 emission level (67 countries presented either an absolute emissions target for 2030 or a target in terms of historical emissions, and 25 countries submitted an emissions target for construction). If a country has not submitted an NDC, we instead use a construction scenario (N = 68) and proceed according to the same procedure. By taking into account only unconditional emission reduction targets, we avoid conflicts of targets that could result from the use of climate finance targets. Projected emissions to 2030 were read directly from the NDC targets [26] and, where appropriate, calculated as shares from construction scenarios. construction scenarios were taken from the DNNs, if applicable; In addition, they were taken from the estimates of the Climate Investment Reference Project (CERP) [27]. The national targets, expressed in emission densities, have been translated into total emissions on the basis of GDP projections from the ETH climate computer [30]. The current period of government, rooted in neoliberal principles, poses particular challenges to achieving equity in the financing of adjustment. In particular, the post-Paris context is characterized by a neglect of equitable distribution as a guiding principle in favor of libertarian ideals of justice, which insist on the rational pursuit of own interests, the highlighting of public responsibility in favor of a focus on the market and the private sector to solve collective problems, the eviction of the polluter-pays principle and forms of command and control governance in favour of a focus on Transp Arenz without robust accountability systems (Ciplet et al.
