Bolivia maintains opposition to the agreement on climate change Cancun

of Bolivia's ambassador to the UN, Pablo Solon, in Bangkok reiterated the need to preserve the survival of the planet (ABI)

Bangkok, April 5 (ABI) .-

Bolivia, the only country to have opposed the deal in Cancun, Mexico, the climate in late December, considering it "very bad" , Tuesday maintained its position at a similar meeting in Bangkok, reports Agence France Presse. noted that Bolivia's ambassador to the United Nations Organization (UNO), Pablo Solon, said "What happened in Cancún should never re-produce, is a terrible precedent," referring to climate change.
said "We are collecting all the evidence to present a complaint, it is not the problem in Bolivia, but the multilateral talks. " Solon gave no further details on instances in which they will submit that complaint.

The release of the French international agency emphasizes that Paul Solon had been the only one of over 190 countries, oppose the text adopted at the last major UN conference on climate change held in the Mexican seaside resort. negotiator criticized the lack of ambition of developed countries in reduction of greenhouse gases.

"The current levels do not lead to a scenario of 2 degrees (limit the rise of temperature, repeated aim at Cancun, editor's note), but rather to 4 or 5 degrees, "he said.

In Cancun, the agreement was not voted but" adopted "by the Mexican Foreign Minister Patricia Espinosa, author of a compromise text, after the applause that gave him almost all of the delegates present.

"If we start to have a system (adoption of resolutions) is not right for everyone, big and small countries, destroy the house we have built together, "said Solon.

In an interview with the English agency EFE, the Bolivian representative noted" If the next summit in Durban, South Africa, no reached a consensus, we will lose a decade because the Kyoto Protocol ends.

Solon, who attends the meeting that the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change organized in Bangkok, said that the fundamental objective Bolivia is that in Durban correct the "grave error" in Cancun accept a reduction in temperature "too low" of just 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels.

In the worst case scenario occur, "we will see a catastrophic situation worldwide for the disappearance of glaciers, rising sea levels, droughts, floods, migrations and the loss of biodiversity, "he said.

said that it is absolutely critical that Durban will reach an agreement by which" the developed countries to carry out reductions to stabilize the temperature rise far, far below two degrees.

The Bolivian representative noted that if not given the go ahead for a second period of post-Kyoto commitment or other binding document that supersedes it "will enter a period where everyone does what he wants and everything is voluntary."

In turn, that inertia break any relationship with concrete to stabilize global temperature and lead to an increase in emissions that will be very, very difficult to correct in 2020, "he said.

Solon said Bolivia has the support delegations on this issue as the European Union, which supports the current promises of reducing gases that cause global warming" are very far from goal. "He believed

emissions cuts must be made" without any cheating "by the industrialized nations, as many moved to action in developing countries," to which they purchase certificates carbon dioxide reductions to count them as their own. "

These governments do not take commitments" substantive "to their societies civilians and brought them and then realize that we must be more ambitious to save the planet, said the leader of the Bolivian delegation.

"Negotiations are not solved only by what happens in these rooms, but also long and largely by what happens in the national policy of each country, and that citizens have the word" he said. Solon

also argued that the rejection of Bolivia to Cancun are not left alone, and his announcement that the agreements to study "has drawn much attention and consciousness because it broke with precedent, and that should no longer happen. "
"We received a very warm supported by many delegations in Bangkok and it said that we were right, and you have to work for this time in Durban attending the climate issue, which was forgotten, "he said.

Representatives of 200 nations are meeting this week in Bangkok to work on the agenda to be presented at the Durban summit to be held in November.
