International Climate Change Negotiations

Australia

In December 2007, at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) negotiations in Bali, the international community pledged to evolve a new, long-run, approach for global cooperation on climate change, to be agreed in Copenhagen in December 2009. This is renowned as 'the Bali Roadmap'.

At the UNFCCC negotiations in Copenhagen, Parties took note of the Copenhagen Accord. The Accord, powerfully sustained by both evolved and evolving nations, is a greeting step forward on international climate change action. In Copenhagen, Parties also agreed to extend the Bali Roadmap negotiations with the aim of completing these negotiations at the Climate Change Conference in Mexico at the end of 2010.

Australia is a constructive participant in the UNFCCC negotiations, employed to achieve a conclusion that is:

Effective: through a pragmatic and long-run global approach that groups the world on a path to a reduced emissions future and decreases the impacts of climate change

Fair: all nations should act, taking into account their grade of development and national circumstances, with advanced finances taking the lead

Efficient: by achieving its goals at the least-cost.

Australia is playing a leading function in international efforts to decrease deforestation, which causes approximately 18 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions.

In May 2010, at the Oslo Climate and Forest Conference, Australia connected 50 nations in agreeing a Partnership for global action to decrease emissions from deforestation and plantation degradation in evolving nations, routinely mentioned to as REDD. Climate change presents a fundamental challenge to Australia's associates and friends in the Pacific. Australia is pledged to arguing the case of Pacific island nations in major global forums on climate change. Conscience Call was most lately offered by the Prime Minister at the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM), Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, 27-29 November 2009
