“…Once the global budget was determined, it was allocated among the different territories by applying Eq. 1 (Suárez-Eiroa et al, 2022). Through this method, we performed a per capita distribution, taking into consideration the projections of population and allocating the responsible share of the global budget by anticipating increases and decreases in population.…”

“…The latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report sets remaining carbon budgets to maintain the temperature increase below +1.5 °C or +2 °C compared to preindustrial levels in 300 and 900 Gt CO2eq (with 83% likelihood), respectively (IPCC, 2021). Despite the scientific evidence of imminent climate collapse (Boers, 2021;Franzke et al, 2022;IPCC, 2022), the growing claim for addressing climate change as a global budget, the consensus about the existence of tipping points (Häyhä et al, 2016;Suárez-Eiroa et al, 2022), and the increasing number of initiatives to allocate scientificbased climate targets among social actors (Holz et al, 2019), climate policies around the world and related reduction targets have been developed by disregarding each one's responsible share of the global budget. Is the current agenda in climate change consistent with the notion of global carbon budgets and the allocation of responsibilities?…”

The European Union (EU) is a leading actor in climate international negotiations and a path-breaking example of sustainability. However, the EU’s current agenda on climate change has been built by disregarding essential features of this global process: accumulation of greenhouse gases over time, cascading regimen shifts within and across scales, and tipping points. We examine whether the EU’s recently declared climate targets are consistent with a reasonable allocation of responsibilities concerning global carbon budgets. This is relevant because the assumption of appropriate climate responsibilities is paramount for the collective coordination of polycentric actions towards the agreed common goal. We find that the current EU climate policy is inconsistent with the aspiration of preventing the +1.5 °C or +2 °C average global temperature increase in 2100, compared to preindustrial levels. We argue that the EU should aim for more responsible policies coherent with its responsible share of the global budget.

There are an increasing number of academic researches and sustainable development policies focusing on planetary boundaries. However, no research has been conducted to far on drawing scienti c investigation map of planetary boundaries. Therefore, this paper conducted a scientometric analysis of 530 academic publications and their 1784 references on planetary boundaries from 2009 to 2021 by visualizing the social network, dual-map overlay, co-cited references, structure variation article, and cooccurrence keywords with Citespace. The results show that as a new achievement and paradigm in the eld of sustainable development research, the planetary boundaries framework is gradually getting global attention and promotion, which increasingly becomes an interdisciplinary hot research topic. The most productive authors and institutions are concentrated in England, the United States, Germany, and Sweden. Relevant articles were mainly published in journals focusing on ecology, earth, marine, veterinary, animal, economics and politics, as represented by the dual-map overlay. In addition, we summarized three predominant research themes by clustering keywords: the calculation of single boundary threshold and present value, the integration with assessment methods such as life cycle assessment and footprint families, the downscaling of planetary boundaries, and the expansion to economic and social domains. For scholars interested in this topic, this paper would be a useful reference and guideline. a timeline map of the keywords (representative node "climate change")
