Abstract:GCC countries have generally developed systematic climate governance action plans. Considering the multiple adverse factors such as the deterioration of geographical environment due to climate change,the development crisis caused by the current economic structure,and social conflicts exacerbated by non-traditional security threats,GCC countries are paying more attention to climate governance and green economy transformation to achieve sustainable development,and are aware of the huge economic benefits of the new green economy model,thus forming an important driving force to promote climate governance. The GCC countries are taking economic diversification as an important basis for climate governance,setting specific emission reduction plans and targets in various fields such as energy,industry,transportation,construction,water resources and ecological conservation,using the technology of Carbon Capture Utilization & Storage,increasing the use of renewable resources and green energy,and improving ecological conservation in order to ultimately achieve carbon neutral goals. Climate governance has been deeply integrated into the national development plans of GCC countries and has become medium and long-term national strategies;however,due to multiple internal and external factors such as policy inertia,weak economic recovery,COVID-19 pandemic,and international conflicts,GCC countries may face multiple challenges in their future economic reforms,and climate governance still faces uncertainties.
