The recent increase in climate warming has further increased the interest of climate policy in the European Union. In order to adapt to the climate change, policies must be implied to guarantee adaptation, and they need to be effective, even if members of the supranational organization have significant economic growth. Therefore, this research will examine what policies EU member nations, Ireland and Estonia, are undertaking to reach the climate neutral goals set by the European Commission. Both of these countries have had significant economic growth after the Paris Agreement in 2015, and there is a positive correlation between an increase in GDP and carbon emissions. However, an economic well- being can help diverting climate-related hazards and risks. Thus, the thesis is limited to processing key words, a content analysis, that will target the political platforms of two countries, in order to analyze their government’s role in climate change and adaptation.
