01.02.2012
This booklet was distributed among delegates of the UN climate change conference COP17 in Durban, SA, December 2011.
The main position of NGOs was: NGO believe that the conference should provide significant progress in working out the new legally binding international agreement. Until such agreement will have been adopted; the second period of the Kyoto protocol shall be in force.
CLIMATE CHANGE AND ENERGY POLICY
NGO insist that nuclear power and large-scale hydropower cannot be egarded as an alternative to hydrocarbon power sources for resolving climate change issues including
joint implementation projects in the framework of the “post-Kyoto” agreement.
A dialog of official authorities that establish and implement climate policies and civic organizations is necessary. Environmental NGO are ready to participate in such a dialog.
