Webcast: NGO Press Briefing on UN Climate Negotiation

Bonn, Germany – June 11, 2014: As the second and final week of the international climate negotiations gets underway, Climate Action Network will host a negotiations update webcast from Bonn where observers will assess the state of the talks after the first week and preview the week ahead.

Commentators will also assess the progress of the talks towards the upcoming ministerial negotiation session in Lima, Peru scheduled for December and the much-anticipated final talks to be held in Paris at the end of 2015: the deadline countries have set for themselves to craft a new international agreement on climate change.
