cochabamba +1: climate justice protocol

The second major conference calling for an alternative to the COP process convened yesterday in Montreal, with Bolivian ambassador to the UN, Pablo Solon, reigniting the flame of concensus that last year's Cancun Agreement represented a step backward in the quest for binding resolution to tackle the climate crisis.

Setting the table for next November's COP17 in Durban, South Africa, Solon called for a unified effort between developing countries and international social movements to put the heat on industrialized countries to cut their domestic emissions  by 40 to 50 per cent to prevent a catastrophic increase in global warming.
