Descripción
Sumario:The objective of this article is to analyze some aspects of the debate regarding the climate change-energy transition in the context of the adoption and the implementation of the Paris Agreement. In this regard, firstly, three characteristic positions in the bibliography are identified with respect to the relation CC-Energy: optimistic, transnational and technocratic; pessimistic; and realistic, gradualist. Secondly, and from a brief characterization of the multilateral process in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the national contributions presented by the ten countries that generate the greatest amount of total GHG emissions at a global level are studied in order to identify if the committed efforts are oriented towards this transition.
