This book provides a quantitative and qualitative overview of the
overall impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on Brazil, Russia,
India, China, and South Africa’s (BRICS countries) capacity to
re-shape global climate governance and explore areas for mutual
cooperation. BRICS countries account for nearly 40% of the total
world population and are thus intrinsic to the global efforts and
results for Agenda 2030, the Sustainable Development Goals, the
Paris Agreement and beyond. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic
does not at first appear to be directly related to BRICS’
policies to address climate change, but it has influenced the pace
and nature of climate action due to the loss of human and financial
capital. This book examines this correlation and raises awareness
of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impacts and potential solutions on
BRICS’ climate strategies. Drawing on case studies from each
country, the authors use examples from urban governance, energy
transitions strategy, foreign investment and more to illustrate how
COVID-19 has negatively or positively impacted climate data and
draw wider conclusions about the long-term climate policies that
may be implemented. This volume will be of great interest to
students and scholars of climate change, environmental politics and
governance and global development studies.
