초록

해양은 인간이 발생시킨 대기 중 탄소를 흡수하고 탄소가 대기 중에 더욱 축적되는 것을 방지하는 등 국제 탄소 순환에서 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 그러나 유엔기후변화협약(UNFCCC) 당사국총회 및 주요 협상의제에서 해양 분야는 기후변화에 의한 희생자로 여겨진 반면, 기후해결을 위한 해결책으로서는 크게 주목받지 못하였다. 최근 해양과 기후시스템이 서로 긴밀하게 연결되어 있고 해양은 기후위기를 해결하기 위해 그 동안 다루지 않았던 수많은 기회를 제공할 수 있다는 인식이 제고되면서, 해양을 기반으로 한 기후 행동을 강화하기 위한 논의를 시작하고 있다. UNFCCC는 2020년부터 해양과 기후변화 이슈를 통합하고 이를 강화하기 위한 논의의 장으로서 '해양대화'를 개최하며, 해양기반기후행동을 강화하기 위한 방안과 도전과제 등을 논의·공유하고 있다. 이와 관련하여 본 연구는 해양기반기후행동에 대한 국제적 논의 배경과 주요 내용을 살펴보고, 해양기반기후행동이 추구해야 하는 내용의 범위와 이를 달성하기 위한 방향에 대한 견해를 제시해보았다. 그리고 해양기반기후행동을 강화하기 위한 방안으로서 통합적 접근과 상호혜택의 증진 등을 위한 과제를 제시하고, 이를 기반으로 국내에서 해양기반기후행동을 강화하기 위한 과제를 제안하였다.

The ocean plays a vital role in the international carbon cycle, absorbing human-induced atmospheric carbon and preventing further atmospheric carbon accumulation. However, while the ocean had been considered a victim of climate change, it did not receive much attention as a solution for climate change in the major agenda of UNFCCC. Recently, a growing awareness that the ocean can provide numerous potentials to handle untapped issues to address the climate crisis has arisen, which has prompted discussions to strengthen ocean-based climate action. Since 2020, UNFCCC "Ocean and climate change dialogue" has been a forum to integrate and strengthen the ocean-climate nexus. This calls for integrating ocean action into climate action and the relevant sectors. In this regard, this study examined the background and international trends of ocean-based climate action and presented the author's perspective on the scope of content that such action should pursue and the direction to achieve it. In addition, this study identified tasks of the integrated approach and advancement of co-benefit as ways to strengthen ocean-based climate action, and it suggested domestic countermeasures for the Korean marine policy on climate change based on this.
