The urgency of global ecological issues is becoming increasingly critical, with political frameworks playing a pivotal role in addressing these challenges. This paper explores the political dimensions of global ecological governance, focusing on how international agreements and national policies intersect to shape sustainable environmental outcomes. The study aims to analyze the effectiveness of political structures in fostering cooperation between nations, examining both successful examples and failures in global environmental governance. The research employs a comparative analysis methodology, evaluating the role of international institutions, such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), alongside national legislative efforts in key regions. Additionally, content analysis is applied to major policy documents to assess the alignment of global ecological goals with political agendas. The results highlight significant disparities between global and national ecological policies, revealing that political interests often hinder the effectiveness of ecological governance frameworks. The analysis shows that while international agreements set ambitious targets, national implementation often falls short due to political and economic constraints. Moreover, the study identifies key factors contributing to successful governance, such as political will, economic incentives, and international cooperation. In conclusion, the paper argues that the future of global ecological governance depends on the alignment of political agendas with environmental goals. Strengthening international collaboration and fostering political commitment at the national level are critical to addressing global ecological challenges. The findings underscore the importance of integrating ecological considerations into the broader political decision-making process to ensure long-term sustainability.
