Leadership Gaps and the Future of Global Climate Governance

Scott Moore reflects on the implications of shifting U.S. engagement for international climate cooperation.

In this interview for the Global Governance Innovation Platform (GGI), Scott Moore points to leadership as a defining factor in the trajectory of global climate governance, particularly in light of the United States’ withdrawal from the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. He reflects on how changes in major power engagement shape the direction, credibility and effectiveness of international climate efforts and what this moment signals for the future of collective action.
