将信息可信度带回透明度：全球温室气体排放监测系统的案例
Bringing Information Credibility Back Into Transparency: The Case for a Global Monitoring System Of Green House Gas Emissions
摘要：
气候变化治理的目标是稳定温室气体浓度。这就要求减少全球人为净排放量。在追求减少温室气体排放的过程中，了解温室气体源和汇对于确定基线和评估气候治理的长期有效性至关重要。这些信息和独立核实其可信度的手段仍然遥不可及，包括最近的巴黎协定。本文认为，要在减缓未来气候变化方面取得真正的进展，必须从理论和实践两方面挑战这一现状。首先，它建议承认并解决气候制度的目标与透明度作为实现这些目标的手段的作用之间的不一致。为此，它将透明度重新定义为公开性和可衡量性的补充，使其成为一种可信的治理信息生成机制。第二，它表明，在实践中，基于这种新的透明度定义并作为全球公益物设计的全球温室气体净排放量监测系统如何能够提供必要的知识，通过在理解待解决问题的范围方面提供可信度和完整性，帮助制定治理解决方案。
英文摘要：
The goal of climate change governance is to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations. This requires the reduction of anthropogenic global net emissions. In the pursuit of such a reduction, knowledge of greenhouse gas sources and sinks is critical to define baselines, and assess the effectiveness of climate governance over time. Such information and the means to independently verify its credibility continue to remain out of reach including in the recent Paris agreement. This essay argues that to make real progress in mitigating future climate change, this status quo must be challenged both intellectually and practically. First, it proposes to acknowledge and address the inconsistency between the objectives of a climate regime and the role of transparency as a mean to achieve these objectives. It does so by redefining transparency as the addition of publicity and measurability, which turns it into a credible information generating mechanism for governance. Second, it shows how in practice, a global monitoring system of greenhouse gas net emissions, based on this new definition of transparency and designed as a global public good, could provide the necessary knowledge to help frame governance solutions by providing both credibility and completeness in understanding the scope of the problem to solve.
