President Obama Spearheads a Climate Agreement in Copenhagen
President Obama visited Copenhagen, Denmark, on December 18, 2009, and met with the heads of state from Brazil, China, India, and South Africa to reach a climate agreement called the "Copenhagen Accord." The agreement emerged as the primary achievement of the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen. The non-binding agreement calls for deep cuts in global emissions of greenhouse gases so as to hold the increase in global temperature below 2°C, and it calls for industrialized countries to determine their economy-wide emissions targets for 2020 and submit them to the United Nations by the end of January. A number of developing countries, including the major emerging economies, also agreed to list their voluntary pledges to reduce emissions by the end of January and agreed to communicate their efforts to limit greenhouse gas emissions every two years. |

Gardianul: SUA si China sunt principalele vinovate pentru esecul summitului de la Copenhaga
Semnarea modestului acord climatic de la Copenhaga a fost urmata de multe rabufniri din partea delegatiilor prezente. In special tarile sarace, care sunt cele mai vulnerabile in fata schimbarilor planetare, provocate de marile economii, au impartit acuzatii in toate directiile, comenteaza The Guardian. Prima catre care s-a indreptat mania tuturor a fost China, care, in mare, nu a fost dispusa sa renunte la nimic. Mai mult, premierul de la Beijing, Wen Jiabao, a parasit, la un moment dat, conferinta. Pe urma, si-a trimis un “functionar marunt” pentru a negocia, in cazul in care exista ceva negociabil, cu Barack Obama. |

Dupa Copenhaga: de la dezamagire la realism
Barroso declara ca acordul reprezinta un pas inainte, dar nu este nici pe departe pe masura ambitiilor UE. Liderii occidentali resping criticile tarilor in curs de dezvoltare in privinta rezultatelor summitului climatic din capitala Danemarcei. Organizatiile de afaceri si aparatorii mediului se arata deopotriva dezamagite. Cu totii par sa fie insa de acord ca nu totul este pierdut. |

Борьба с потеплением заморозилась
Копенгагенский саммит по проблемам изменения климата с треском провалился. Развитым странам не удалось убедить развивающиеся государства взять на себя обязательства по снижению уровня выбросов в атмосферу парниковых газов. Итоговый документ, названный «Копенгагенским согласием», не содержит конкретных обязательств. |
