A senior Chinese official on Wednesday elaborated China's stance on a shared vision for long-term cooperative action under the UN climate convention, saying pragmatic actions are needed.
Su Wei, deputy head of the Chinese delegation to the Poznan talks, said shared vision should be focused on the implementation of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Kyoto Protocol, Bali Roadmap, and address mitigation, adaptation, technology transfer, and provision of financing resources.
A shared vision on long-term cooperative action should be guided by the ultimate objective of the convention, which is the stabilization of greenhouse gas concentration, adaptation to climate change and a sustainable development, Su said.
