“The climate summit in Katowice 2018”
“Breakthrough on the climate summit – but the important clause is not accepted”
“KATOWICE. Stridsfrågan in Katowice – about the high-profile klimatrapporten be allowed is on the way to be solved. “
“The Polish presidency has now put forward a proposal, and Isabella Lövin, who have been in intense negotiating, think it will go through. “
“– But the section that talks about how the large emission reductions we need by 2030 to cope with the 1.5-gradersmålet was not accepted, ” she says. “
“the climate summit in Katowice go on overtime. Ministers and negotiators have been sitting throughout the deliberations all night, and the time of the slutmötet has all the time been pushed forward. “
“At lunchtime, however, a clear breakthrough. The Polish presidency presented the outcome document of what has come to be a bone of contention – if the meeting shall recognise the high profile of 1.5-gradersrapporten. Four countries, USA, Russia, saudi Arabia and Kuwait, have refused to deal with the word ”welcome” in the final – instead they have wanted to have the much weaker wording ”take note”. “
“In the new documents is the word welcome with – at the same time has another important formulation have been removed. “
“– The section that used to be with, talking about how the large emission reductions we need by 2030 to cope with the 1.5-gradersmålet, was not accepted. In general, there are strong statements that the welcome that the report has been submitted and that the IPCC is the foundation for the climate convention, ” says klimatminister Isabella Lövin, who had special tasks to resolve the issue. “
“it Will not be toothless if you don’t have with how large the reduction must be?”
“– the Report of the 1,5-gradersmålet has been adopted by the entire international community when it was presented in south Korea. The report is available, the conclusion is, and we now call on the countries of this text to the use of the conclusions.”
“During the Saturday has more and more end credits published by the Polish presidency. “
“– Nothing is complete before it is hammered, but we hear in the corridors that most seem to be in place. But there are still issues regarding the promises of financing and how to scale up financing to 2020, then the 100 billion dollars should be in place, ” says Isabella Lövin. “
“She believes, however, that the parts on the transparency and reporting looks good. Another important issue, which is more technically complicated about the mechanisms of the market for emission reductions. The goal has been to get to a new system, the former has been criticized because the rich countries could buy themselves free by investing in poorer countries and thus the counting of the emission reductions that the national. “
“Now it doesn’t look like it will be a decision on this issue – according to information provided to Aftonbladet is it that Brazil runs a completely private line. “
“– this issue of the market mechanism is pushed forward, and we think that is good. It is important to create loopholes, such as buying allowances in the projects still would not have been created, ” says Isabella Lövin. “
“the Decisions are formally made in the afternoon, and Isabella Lövin, stresses that things can be changed. “
