Tim Wirth, president of the United Nations Foundation, asked panelists to look ahead to the Copenhagen talks and what is needed to make them successful.
Nitin Desai, a TERI distinguished fellow, said the UNFCC talks are "not the only game in town." He suggested it is important to recognize the importance of things that can be done unilaterally or through bilateral cooperation.
He noted that Minister Ramesh promised mitigation "outcomes," not just goals, which he called significant.
Coal and oil costs will go up in coming decades, Desai said. Our job is to position countries to meet energy needs with low carbon emissions in that period. He talked about progress coming through bilateral deals that are expanded. |
