Growing in the Greenhouse

The document introduces the concept of sustainable development policies and measures (SD-PAMs), which align a host country's national development priorities with a lower-carbon trajectory within an international climate framework. It evaluates the merits and limitations of this approach and examines its operational implications through case studies in Brazil, China, India, and South Africa.

• Sustainable development policies and measures (SD-PAMs) are defined as policies that align with a host country's national sustainable development priorities while utilizing an international climate framework to support a lower-carbon trajectory.
• While SD-PAMs have been integrated into climate policy vocabulary and proposed as part of a climate regime by entities like the Climate Action Network (2003), significant work is still required to determine their operational implications within international policy frameworks.
