Brazil on differing mitigation targets & same baseline years

Sergio Barbosa Serra (December 2009)

Where: Copenhagen: COP15 UN Climate Change Conference 2009

Brazilian Climate Change Ambassador, Sergio Serra, raises concerns over differing mitigation targets with Climate-Change.tv. He urges countries to use the same baseline year, as recommended by the IPCC. He also echoes President of the COP, Connie Hedegaard’s, warning of “No money, No deal,” and says the $10 billion fund is merely the beginning, to be used for urgent adaptation and mitigation projects. Beyond this, more serious long-term financing is needed. Also see Sergio Barbosa Serra, speaking from Bangkok in 2009, and Bonn in August, June and April 2009.
