Poznań - Yvo De Boer - Climate Change

Back


Briefing the media on the opening day of the conference, Yvo de Boer emphasized the crucial role of finance in reaching a long-term solution to climate change. Advancing the commitment of industrialized countries is intimately linked to enhancing the engagement of developing countries, he said. Poznań would show progress on ongoing work under the Convention and allow Ministers to present their vision of long-term cooperative action, he explained. His expectations for the meeting - being attended by almost 11.000 participants - included the launch of the Adaptation Fund, as well as significant advances on technology transfer, the CDM and the issue of deforestation. Mr. de Boer highlighted two important signals received in 2007: The IPCC report, confirming the reality and impacts of climate change; and the Stern Review on the Economics of Climate Change, which said failure to act would equal economic failure on the scale of two World Wars and the Great Depression combined.
