  2. The final outcome - 1 “Multilateral process has sustained but not the climate balance” No decision on legally binding i.e., Kyoto protocol which will be ending in 2012, Process of dialogue again prolonged up to November 2011, CoP 17, at Durban USA, Russia and Japan has opposed i.e., shown audacity to pollute climate Commitment to keep temperature 2 C, i.e., by the end of this century global temperature will raise 4 to 6 C. No care to the IPCC fourth assessment report. Creation of Global Green Fund, 3 years role for World Bank, i.e., legitimatized neo liberal role of World Bank, still who is the biggest investor in dirty/ carbon polluting industry, in 2009 it was 6.3 % billion, 17 % of their all investment www.equitybd.org

  3. The final outcome - 3 Strengthen the market solutions, i.e., carbon trading through REDD i.e. Big emitters will continue to emit carbons as previous, it will be legitimize through carbon trading, in investing money in forestation and reducing desertification though private and public agencies. UNFCCC’s role has become as a CARBON TRADER, not as working to mitigate global climate injustice. www.equitybd.org

  4. System approach to contain descent voices, little space for CSOs We condemn the role of Mexican government and UNFCCC in holding the CoP 16: Practical arrangement made difficult to raise decent voices / alternatives/justice based non market solutions • Meeting place 40 km far from the main town, everyday all most all delegates and CSOs has to spend 3 hours in journey • Restriction in holding procession and protest (even the silent protest) in conference place • Side events and conference is 10 km far from conference place • LDC CSOs has to face difficulties to get visa • Costly travel and costly livelihood , multilateral discussion place have to effordable. • La via campesina and other CSOs protest rallies has been barred to go to nearer to conference place www.equitybd.org
