America Wakes Up to Climate Change

International negotiations on climate (INCs)

Every effort must be made to agree on mitigating the impact of climate change during the third session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change to be held in Kyoto.

To climate change that would be like Kyoto.

Parties also indicated the need to improve the capabilities of national climate change coordinators and national institutions to manage and coordinate climate change programmes.

In this regard, WMO will consider any request to coordinate the necessary international long term monitoring and climate research programmes.

7 bis. Commit ourselves to fully implement the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and to further promote international cooperation on climate change

The satellite data serve to improve weather forecasting on an operational basis, and are used in the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) and the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) of WMO.

These included inter ministerial climate change coordination committees, technical working groups undertaking specific studies on inventories, mitigation, vulnerability and adaptation, and climate research centres coordinating national studies.

(ii) International programmes related to climate change, such as the World Climate Programme and the forthcoming Climate Agenda proposal, as well as the System for Analysis, Research and Training (START) initiative of the International Geosphere Biosphere Programme (IGBP) and the scientific and educational programmes of WMO and UNEP as they are developed.

(a) Fully implement the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and further promote international cooperation on climate change

In conclusion, he urged all Parties to encourage the establishment or strengthening of national climate committees, as well as national and regional action plans for climate change, in support of the Climate Agenda, an inter agency initiative to establish an integrated framework for international climate related scientific and technical programmes, and reaffirmed WMO apos s strong commitment to fully support the Convention and its implementation process.

The National Council for Scientific Research is cooperating with the Directorate of Climatology to establish a national network of meteorological stations and to assist in the research sectors where climate data are required.

In that regard, her delegation hoped that the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, in which Peru had introduced a proposal on the reduction of greenhouse gases, would adopt realistic agreements that would benefit mankind.

It is critical for countries to implement fully and expeditiously the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and its Kyoto Protocol, and also related climate change agreements, policies and partnerships.

If an international agreement to protect the world s climate is to be reached, much greater action to reduce CO2 emissions will be needed on the part of the US, as well as binding commitments on China s part to reduce its carbon burden. Ultimately, though, without US China cooperation, a global climate agreement will be held hostage.

The Satellite data are useful to weather forecasting on an operational basis, and are used in the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) and the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) of WMO.

The entry into force of the Kyoto Protocol had launched a new phase in international efforts to protect the global climate.

Recent global agreements in the environmental field, notably on climate change, biodiversity, the ozone layer and hazardous wastes, may be seen as having provided a stimulus both to international economic cooperation and to development cooperation.

In one case, a meeting was held in conjunction with a meeting of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in order to encourage co ordination.

The Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre second International Work Conference on Climate Change and Disaster Reduction brought together country practitioners and experts from the two fields to advance collaboration.

The tenth session of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention had adopted a programme of work on adaptation and response measures, an important step in mainstreaming adaptation into the international response to climate change and into sustainable development planning.

The agreements are supplemented in some countries by works councils and at the international level by framework agreements, all of which greatly increase trust, worker morale and participation and increase the possibility of substantial progress towards sustainable industrial development through the inclusion of energy and climate change related targets.
