Schritt zu Kyoto-Folgeabkommen
Nach zähen Verhandlungen hat sich
die UNO-Klimakonferenz in Nairobi zum Abschluss ihrer
zweiwöchigen Tagung am Freitag auf eine Überprüfung
des Kyoto-Protokolls ab 2008 geeinigt. Ein Datum für
das Ende der Revision wurde jedoch ebenso wenig festgelegt
wie die Vorbedingungen.

Conference on Warming Ends, Achieving Modest Results
The yearly United Nations conference
on climate change ended Friday with only modest results
after delegates failed to establish a timetable for future
cuts on pollution linked to global warming.
Despite nearly two weeks of meetings, which drew 6,000
participants to Nairobi from around the world, the delegates
could not agree on a number of issues, especially how
to move beyond the Kyoto Protocol, which requires cuts
in emissions by most industrialized countries but expires
in 2012.

Talks
unlikely to produce push for a new Kyoto
YVO de Boer was, naturally, diplomatic.
Asked what he thought of Prime Minister John Howard's promise
to "push for a New Kyoto" at the global warming
summit in Nairobi this week, the United Nations climate
change convention executive director said Australia was
"very actively engaged" in general debates.

U.S. climate negotiator says U.S. has eye on 'cap-and-trade'
systems
U.S. President George W. Bush's administration,
seeking "the most effective approaches," will
watch closely how California, other U.S. states and other
nations carry out their plans for reining in global-warming
gases, the chief U.S. negotiator said Thursday.

UN
talks seek extended Kyoto "as soon as possible"
A U.N. climate change conference has reaffirmed
a goal of agreeing an extension of the Kyoto Protocol on
curbing global warming "as soon as possible" beyond
2012 but without setting a deadline. A committee of delegates
from 165 nations said it would end its work "as early
as possible and in time to ensure that there is no gap"
between the end of Kyooto's first period lasting until 2012
and new limits for industrialized nations from 2013.

Uneinigkeit
auf UN-Gipfel über Kyoto-Nachfolgeregelung
Die Teilnehmer des Klimagipfels der Vereinten
Nationen sind uneinig über die Aushandlung einer Nachfolgeregelung
für das 2012 auslaufende Kyoto-Protokoll. Neue langfristige
Regelungen im Kampf gegen den Klimawandel sollten Delegierten
zufolge sobald wie möglich vereinbart werden. Allerdings
blieb am Dienstag unklar, ob dies 2008, 2009 oder 2010 bedeutet.
