UN climate change workshop

Vienna climate change talks 2007 from 27 to 31 August

About 1,000 delegates from more than 150 countries at the Aug 27-31 talks will seek common ground between industrial nations with Kyoto greenhouse gas caps until 2012, like the European Union countries, and outsiders led by the United States and China, the top two emitters.

The United Nations' senior climate change official Yvo de Boer declared that the talks in Vienna will give an indication as to whether countries are willing to move forward towards launching real negotiating on taking forward the Kyoto protocol after it expires in 2012.

This Vienna meeting is also due to discuss the new UN report looking at the financial aspects of climate change over the next 25 years. It was released on 23 August by the UNFCCC secretariat. The report says that by 2030 additional investments of around $200bn a year will be needed to hold greenhouse gas emissions to the current level.
