2:51Now PlayingBriefing the media on the opening day of the Bonn Talks, UNFCCC Executive Secretary Yvo de Boer pointed to the limited negotiating time left before Copenhagen in December to deliver a meaningful long-term response to climate change.
He said the agreement in Copenhagen needed to deliver clarity on at least four things:
• What industrialized countries will do, through individual targets, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
• What developing countries will do to limit the growth of their emissions
• Finance - developing countries cannot be expected to act on this issue without financial support
• Governance a governance structure is needed that gives an equal voice to developing countries in how the resources available for mitigation and adaptation are used
Several documents are on the table in Bonn that go towards future targets for industrialized countries. There are also two much broader documents as a basis for negotiation in the context of the Bali Road Map under the Convention, with the aim of having a fully-fledged negotiating text on the table by June.
