氣候減緩與適應舉措以及發(fā)展中國家氣候行動方面的資金援助細則;
guidelines that relate to the process for establishing new targets on finance from 2025 onwards to follow-on from the current target of mobilizing 100 billion US dollars per year from 2020 to support developing countries;

《巴黎協(xié)定》是什么?
《巴黎協(xié)定》(Paris Agreement)是在巴黎出席氣候大會的195國談判代表在2015年12月12日達成的歷史上首個關(guān)于氣候變化的全球性協(xié)定。
《巴黎協(xié)定》共29條,包括目標、減緩、適應、損失損害、資金、技術(shù)、能力建設(shè)、透明度、全球盤點等內(nèi)容。2020年后,各國將以“國家自定貢獻”(nationally determined contribution)的方式參與全球應對氣候變化行動。
長遠目標(the long-term goal):確保全球平均氣溫較前工業(yè)化水平升高控制在2攝氏度之內(nèi)(make sure the global temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels),并為把升溫控制在1.5攝氏度之內(nèi)“付出努力”("pursue efforts" to limit the temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius)。
減排目標(emissions targets):與會各方同意每隔5年重新設(shè)定各自的減排目標(set national targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions every five years)。目前已有180多個國家和地區(qū)提交了從2020年起始的五年期限內(nèi)減排目標。
評估目標(reviewing targets): 與會各方今后4年內(nèi)重新評估各自的減排目標,以便適時做出調(diào)整。
透明度(transparency):要求締約方匯報各自的溫室氣體排放情況以及減排進展,但賦予發(fā)展中國家適度“彈性”(flexibility)。
資金(money): 要求發(fā)達國家繼續(xù)向發(fā)展中國家提供資金援助,從而幫助后者減少碳排放以及適應氣候變化(wealthy countries should continue to offer financial support to help poor countries reduce their emissions and adapt to climate change)。
損失破壞(loss and damage):該協(xié)定 “承認”損失和破壞的內(nèi)容,主要是針對由氣候變化引發(fā)的災難(recognizing "loss and damage" associated with climate-related disasters)。
