Climate

Without an adequate and just financing of measures, we will not be able to deal with impacts of climate change.

Even antagonists have realised that ecology and economy are inextricably linked and that sustainable policy is politically realistic. A responsible resource policy with a view to climate change is not only becoming more important, but is the best protection against the threat of a lack of resources.

Never before have such important decisions had to be taken within a period of two years. The agendas for the next negotiations in Poznan (2008) and Copenhagen (2009) were passed in Bali in 2007.

Future projections of effects and costs of climate change are highly uncertain. Many scientific findings are required to make the projections as exact as possible.
