The Durban Platform - WSP's briefing on COP17 | 12th Dec 2011

Agreement without the detail. Read our one-page summary of COP17, a major political agreement that at least proved that the world has not abandoned action on climate change.

David Symons of WSP provides a one page outline of the key outcomes from COP17 in Durban, South Africa.

"There is global commitment, but precious little agreement on actually cutting emissions. And for business, some certainty that there is a long term political will in climate change and sustainability" says David Symons, Director for WSP in their Sustainability & Energy practice.

Our one page factsheet details the outcomes impacting the replacement Kyoto Protocol, the Green Climate Fund, the Clean Development Mechanism and what happens next.
