This paper was presented at the UN FCCC COP12 in Nairobi.
The paper makes the following recommendations for international public policy frameworks on climate change after 2012, when the Kyoto Protocol expires:
- Establishing by 2010 a quantifiable, long-term (50-year) goal for the management of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
- Encouraging the development and deployment of leading-edge technologies through partnerships and incentives and an approach to mitigate long-term market risk and deliver secure benefits for large-scale, low-carbon, new technology projects.
- Including ideas and lessons learned from current approaches and in particular building on existing GHG reduction markets.
- Modifying the existing international framework so that it builds progressively (bottom up) from local, national, sector or regional programs that contribute to the quantifiable long-term international goal and catalyzing the implementation of such programs.
- The progressive inclusion of all countries - both developing and developed.
