El cambio climático es un tema de preocupación en todo el mundo. Sin embargo, el cambio climático, al no ser visto como una prioridad entre otras cuestiones, aún no se ha incorporado firmemente en las agendas de políticas ambientales o económicas de los países en desarrollo. Sin embargo, la evidencia muestra que algunos de los efectos más adversos del cambio climático los experimentarán los países en desarrollo cuyas poblaciones son las más vulnerables y las que tienen menos probabilidades de adaptarse al cambio climático. Por ejemplo, aunque los países de América Latina representan sólo el 9 por ciento de las emisiones globales de dióxido de carbono, el impacto social y económico de esas emisiones es significativamente mayor que en los países desarrollados y emergentes. Este fenómeno se denomina "doble desigualdad", ya que el impacto del cambio climático se siente más profundamente en las sociedades más pobres que no son los principales emisores.

En este sentido, es importante que los países en desarrollo, especialmente los sudamericanos, integren las cuestiones del cambio climático en su proceso de toma de decisiones, donde la política energética juega un papel importante en su desarrollo. Los principales impulsores de la política energética contemporánea son.

Climate change is a topic of worIdwide concern. Nevertheless, climate change, not being seen as a priority amongst other issues, has not yet been strongly incorporated into the environmental or economic policy agendas of developing countries. Nevertheless, evidence shows that some of the most adverse effects of climate change will be experienced by developing countries whose populations are the most vulnerable and least likely to be able to adapt to climate change. For instance, although Latín America countries represent only 9 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions, the social and economic impact of those emissions is significantly greater than in developed and emergent countries. This phenomenon is called "double inequity" where the impact of climate change is felt most deeply by poorest societies who are not the main emitters.
In this respect, it is important that developing countries, especially South American countries, integrate climate change issues into their decision-making process, where energy policy plays an important role in their development. The main drivers behind contemporary energy policy are.
