Africa will not become the graveyard of the Kyoto Protocol - African Negotiators
The African Group of Negotiators has vowed not to bury the Kyoto Protocol in Africa, reporters of the Information and Communications Service of ECA learnt in Durban today. “Africa will not become the graveyard of the Kyoto Protocol”, Mr. Victor Kabengele wa Koudilu, one of the chairs of the Group and lead negotiator of the Democratic Republic of Congo announced at the opening session of the Ad-hoc Working Group on the Kyoto Protocol (AWG-KP) at the COP 17 talks in Durban, South Africa. The Working Group is seeking a new legally-binding agreement on emissions reductions to replace the Kyoto Protocol, which expires next year. Kyoto is the only international legally-binding agreement and there are fears that if a successor is not found soon, global temperatures could rise above the two degrees level that scientists have warned could threaten the very existence of the planet.
