Climate policy and the SDGs agenda: How does near-term action on nexus SDGs influence the achievement of long-term climate goals?

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) represent the global ambition to accelerate sustainable development. Several SDGs are directly related to climate change and policies aiming to mitigate it. This includes, among others, the set of SDGs that directly influence the climate, land, energy, and water (CLEW) nexus (SDGs 2, 6, 7, 13, 15). This study aims at understanding the synergies and trade-offs between climate policy and the SDGs agenda: how does near-term action on SDGs influence long-term climate goals?可持续发展目标（Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs）代表了全球加速可持续发展的共同愿景。多项可持续发展目标与气候变化及旨在减缓气候变化的政策直接相关，其中包括直接影响气候-土地-能源-水（CLEW）耦合系统的相关目标（即第2、6、7、13、15项可持续发展目标）。本研究旨在厘清气候政策与可持续发展目标议程之间的协同效应与权衡取舍：针对可持续发展目标的近期行动将如何影响长期气候目标？
