Takeaways:
Copenhagen saw the end of old ways of intergovernmental negotiations
The Copenhagen Accord– A non binding “Letter of Intent”– But little clarity on how this will be implemented
COP 15 Copenhagen
34
![Page 35: Business and Sustainable Development – The Green Race is on](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062423/56814621550346895db3292d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Main elements: – Committed limiting global warming to 2°C– Encouraged pledges of cuts from
developed countries and actions from developing countries
– Agreed to transparent reporting of actions– Proposed new mechanisms to manage
finance, technology and REDD+• Committed $30 to 2012• 2nd phase - 100 bln$ annually by 2020
The Copenhagen Accord

UNFCCC COP 16 Cancun
Little urgency in UN negotiations post-Copenhagen
Expectations for COP16 Cancun played down
Major obstacles:
– Lack of US domestic legislation
– Country commitments to further reductions?
– Reporting and verification principles?
– Technology transfer and funding to developing countries?
36

Climate negotiations and business
Governments recognize necessity for business input
WBCSD study for the EU focused on improving this interface
– Need to build an informal track for engagement to complement stronger links to the formal proceedings
Mexican Dialogues 2010

Technology
Key issue for business– Need for long term plans to guide
investments and funding of RD&D New WBCSD reports:
1.“Enabling Frameworks for Technology Diffusion”
