I don’t see how COPs can decide to fight climate change BY CONSENSUS. Parties include petrostates doing all they can to keep producing and burning fossil fuel, even if that mean derailing efforts to fight climate change.
It would be voluntary but would facilitate the enforcment of carbon tariffs, or carbon import tax, to be applied collectively against states that don’t participate and pollute the most.
