"I think that we have learnt from the failure of Copenhagen. As proof of this, we must review our strategy so that we can achieve a legally binding agreement in Mexico.
Prompt action is required to translate the political agreement reached into action, as well as to put into operation the EUR 7.2 billion earmarked for ‘fast-start financing’ for developing countries.
The EU has made known its wish to be associated with the Accord and has made, by way of information, a unilateral commitment to reduce the EU’s global emissions by 20% on 1990 levels and a conditional offer of raising this reduction percentage to 30% if other major producers of emissions also agree to contribute by an equivalent proportion to the global effort to cut emissions.
As of 18 February, 40 states have made known their reduction plans and 100 have signed up to the Accord, but this is not enough.
I urge the High Representative and Commissioner for Climate Action to present to us urgently a climate diplomacy strategy and the EU and Member States to include climate change policies in all bilateral and multilateral strategic partnerships in order to achieve this major objective.
Strategic partnerships for combating climate change must include NGOs and civil society."@en1
