CLARA Responds to UNFCCC Bonn Climate Talks

After the most recent international climate negotiations in Bonn, the Climate Land Ambition & Rights Alliance (CLARA) has issued a press release providing updates and analyses on Paris Agreement Article 6 (market and non-market mechanisms), agriculture and ‘net zero’.

They have concluded that non-market activities to help countries reduce emissions are ready to go, but that market rules may take years to be finalized.

GFC’s Souparna Lahiri is quoted:

Developing countries have to unite strongly to overcome that opposition.
