Informal Paris Climate Talks Will Seek 'Points of Convergence' to Trim Draft Text

摘要

Some 45 countries are expected to send "high-level" representatives to Paris early next week for informal climate discussions aimed at trimming a draft negotiating text still bloated by many unresolved subjects, France's top climate diplomat told reporters July 16. Laurence Tubiana, French ambassador for the United Nations climate change negotiations that are supposed to culminate in a global agreement at year's end, said they haven't really gotten off the ground because delegations don't yet have instructions to go into deeper detail during talks.
