"Madam President, everything has already been said in this debate, even, with what Mr Bloom said, a bit of nonsense. The crisis has been serving as an excuse for not taking the ambitious decisions that the situation requires and the public expects, in relation to the economy, to society or to the environment.
As such, expectations for Durban are fairly low, but it is to be hoped that, at the least, a step will be taken towards reaching a fair and legally binding international agreement, and that the goal of keeping global warming below 2 ºC can be achieved. That will require strength of will and political leadership.
The European Union should publicly and unequivocally declare its commitment to finding a successor to the Kyoto Protocol with ambitious and courageous targets. Durban should also contribute to consolidating the progress made in Cancún, specifically as regards the Green Climate Fund and the Adaptation Committee.
It should be re-emphasised that the developed countries committed to making new resources available in the 2010-2012 period – a minimum of USD 30 billion and of USD 100 billion per year until 2020 – to support the mitigation and adaptation measures of vulnerable and less developed countries."@en1
