Warsaw UN climate talks: What is there to negotiate?

  • 20/11/2013

The persistence of climate change negotiators huddled together in Warsaw from over 190 countries is laudable. Even when countries are failing to reign in their greenhouse emissions that is causing a rise in global temperatures, the negotiations keep going. This is their 19th attempt under the Conference of Parties (COP) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) which meets every year to get member countries to take action on climate change. But ‘action’ seems to be an elusive and a constantly receding goal. Original Source: http://vikasnath.files.wordpress.com/2013/11/un-climate-warsaw-what-is-there-to-negotiate-vikas-nath2.pdf
