UNFCCC Executive Secretary Yvo de Boer: “What can and must be achieved at
COP 15 in Copenhagen”

Slightly less than two weeks ahead of the historic UN Climate Change
Conference in Copenhagen (COP 15), UNFCCC Executive Secretary Yvo de Boer
will brief the press about his expectations for the meeting, where a
comprehensive, ambitious and effective international climate change deal is
to be clinched.

The UN’s top climate change official will explain what COP 15 needs to
deliver in order to be a decisive turning point in the international
response to climate change. At the briefing, he will in particular focus on
the role of developing countries, highlighting how they stand to gain from
a strong Copenhagen outcome. He will also explain how clarity on supported
“nationally appropriate mitigation actions” (NAMAs) in Copenhagen will help
developing countries achieve their sustainable development goals.
