"Madam President, one year on from the Cancún climate change conference, and two years since that of Copenhagen, numerous unanswered questions, deadlocks and obstacles remain. For our part, we are still convinced that the difficulties and contradictions that mark these conferences stem, in large measure, from the incomprehension of the main industrial powers – including the European powers too, naturally – of the true and deeper meaning of the principle of shared but differentiated responsibility.
Moreover, these powers almost always seem more interested in making use of the climate as a lucrative business opportunity, or in containing potential or real competitors, than in actually achieving real levels of emissions reduction, which would necessarily involve calling into question the model of economic and social organisation currently dominant at global level.
That is why we insist on the need for serious debate on the perversity of market instruments, on the carbon market, and on flexibility instruments like the clean development mechanism.
Alternatives to this market approach are needed."@en1
