摘要

巴黎协定》缔约方已承诺为全球应对气候变化做出连续的 "本国决定的贡献"（NDCs）。每份国家发展承诺都应反映缔约方在减缓气候变化方面的 "尽可能高的目标"（HPA）。本文设想了认真对待 HPA 的可能性：即把它作为一个有效的法律标准。它表明，在某些情况下，HPA 标准有助于评估一个国家是否履行了减缓气候变化的尽责义务。

THE ‘HIGHEST POSSIBLE AMBITION’ ON CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION AS A LEGAL STANDARD

The Parties to the Paris Agreement have committed to communicate successive ‘nationally determined contributions’ (NDCs) to the global response to climate change. Each NDC is expected to reflect the Party's ‘highest possible ambition’ (HPA) on the mitigation of climate change. This article envisages the possibility of taking HPA seriously: that is, of approaching it as an effective legal standard. It shows that, in some circumstances, the HPA standard can help to assess whether a State has complied with due diligence obligations on climate change mitigation.
