Instead, negotiations for the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris in December are being conducted on the basis of voluntary, unilateral pledges called Intended Nationally Determined Contributions. Although the inclusion of voluntary targets has the merit of creating global momentum, this approach is unlikely to result in commitments that are both binding and commensurate to the challenge.
相反，12月的巴黎联合国气候变化会议谈判基于被称之为各国自定贡献预案的自愿的单方面承诺。尽管纳入自愿目标有助于增加全球动力，但这一方针不可能产生具有约束力的、与挑战规模匹配的承诺。
