At that point, the EU’s role as global climate-policy leader would be weakened, as would its emphasis on building a green economy. With the EU forced to promote second- and third-rate strategies, countries would lose confidence in international climate policy’s problem-solving potential and become unwilling to pursue shared solutions.
到了这一步，欧盟作为全球气候政策领袖的地位将受到削弱，其对建设绿色经济的强调亦然。随着欧盟被迫推行第二套甚至第三套战略，各国将对国际气候政策的解决问题能力失去信心，不再愿意追求共同解决方案。
