Nasal Congestion For 1 Month

DGB: Copenhagen should not be discouraged. Technologies to reduce CO2 emissions continue to develop.

"The results of the 15th Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen are disappointing. But they must not be discouraged, but should inspire us and the politicians, "said DGB board member Dietmar Hexel on Tuesday in Berlin. The Bonn Conference in 2010 would bring tangible results. This includes the trade union demands were for a socially just transition to a low carbon production, the decent and well-paying jobs make it. "This requirement of the International Trade Union Confederation was supported by many countries in Copenhagen. The German Government is requested to pursue this in the discussions to the next COP in 2010, "said Hexel.

in Copenhagen was not a binding agreement signed by all States, but merely "take note" taken. Binding targets to reduce CO2 emissions are missing. Thus there is no verifiable for all operations, including the 2-degree target global warming by the States should not be exceeded.

"Copenhagen has achieved less than expected. This is a catastrophe for the environment and the world community. The social and economic consequences and costs will increase significantly and a particular burden workers and poor countries strong when nothing is done decisively. Politicians have the problem no longer be postponed. That the emerging and developing countries, the financial offer was too low by developed countries is understandable. This has helped in Copenhagen no agreement has been ratified, "said the DGB board member.

The countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America wanted to participate in the qualitative growth and reduce the wealth gap with the developed countries, Hexel. "This is only with climate-friendly and sustainable technology and corresponding financial transfer. Germany can support emerging and developing countries as a market leader in green technologies themselves well and be a pioneer in many fields. The quite legitimate demand for an emissions output per Kopf fordert insbesondere den größten Emitenten, die USA, heraus. Die Technologien zur Energieeffizienz und zur CO 2 -Reduzierung müssen weiterentwickelt und ein globaler Emissionshandel angestrebt werden. Sonst droht ein Abwandern der CO 2 -intensiven Industrien in Länder ohne Regelungen. Das ist weder gut fürs Klima noch für die ArbeitnehmerInnen in Deutschland und Europa."

The air runs out of time

von Horst Heuter

Tempus Fugit - die Zeit läuft davon, während der Klimawandel immer bedrohlichere Züge annimmt. Doch die Regierungen verhandeln, als hätten sie alle Zeit der Welt.

Hatte der 2007 in Bali verabschiedete Fahrplan noch Hopes to conclude an international legally binding climate agreement in Copenhagen raised, the expectations are here today and sobering. It is decided more than a political declaration at COP 15 seems unlikely.

This was postponed to solve the climate crisis for another year. If, in the first half of 2010 to no substantial results, and you just target the COP 16 in Mexico. Too bad about the wasted time!

And those that the pressure on the governments could continue to maintain that NGOs were barred from almost all the crucial final days of negotiations. Honi soit qui mal y pense - a rogue who thinks evil of it.

Die Gewerkschaften des IGB haben ihr Bestes gegeben. Noch nie waren sie zahlenmäßig und in dieser Lobbydichte auf einem Klimagipfel vertreten. Dies machte sich bermerkbar durch die mehr als 30 von ihnen organisierten Veranstaltungen oder die unzähligen bilateralen Gespräche mit ihren jeweiligen Regierungen. Wie bereits in einem früheren Blogbeitrag ausgeführt, hat auch der DGB seinen Einfluss auf die deutsche Regierungsdelegation geltend gemacht. Überdies wird am heutigen letzten Verhandlungstag die IGB-Präsidentin Sharan Burrow vor der Vollversammlung der COP sprechen.

Was bleibt an Erinnerungen an diese Woche in Kopenhagen jenseits der offiziellen Verhandlungen?

As could tell something: from trees in cans, hours of waiting in the cold, failing underground trains, long walks in the snow, a lost credit card, a hair from the UN security service arrested board member of the DGB to the incredible tricks of the DGB-colleague, who almost always managed to come to the safety locks to pass the official event center. But that's another story ...

position of the IGB on the negotiations

would
Today was the last morning round instead of the International Trade Union Confederation, for the Danish Confederation of Trade Unions in the usual manner of its premises available to us. A stroke of luck, given the extensive lockout civil society from the official venue, the Bella Center. to speak

already a success or failure of COP 15 would be too early, the IGB. Even if today the last of the trial had begun. They want to wait for the final document and hope that this will continue our call for "just transition" (just the transition at work in tackling climate change) and "decent work" (decent) contained. Criticized

was unacceptable, almost complete exclusion of social groups - including the trade unions - from the official negotiations. This was shown by increasingly stringent restrictions on access of the United Nations. The ITUC has already addressed this, by its President Sharan Burrow and its Secretary-General Guy rowing a protest note to the UN.

All the more praise for the colleagues of the Danish Confederation of Trade Unions LO Danmark for her hard work and organization of the pavilions' world of work. "This not only provided space for more than 30 well attended side events, but was also always becoming an alternative venue to the unions in Copenhagen. LO Danmark provided food, computers, printers, Internet connections, Copiers, and not least warm premises.

criticized the crackdown was the Danish police in particular against the representatives of environmental organizations.

Some union colleagues kritsierten, you have too little working with the environmental groups, their presence had on the so-called Climate Forum in Copenhagen. On this charge, the ITUC met with the reference to the efficient work of trade unions in the building of the Danish Confederation of Trade Unions. Among the side events and the environmental groups had been invited.

Danish host thanked the IGB representatives with small gifts, especially Anabella Rosemberg , but James Howard, for the "best job", which had been rendered to the IGB on a climate change summit. Which I can only connect explicitly.

was equally well of course the host LO Danmark sustain labor and the chairman of the ICA meetings on the COP, the British counterpart Phil Pearson thanked. This closed the event with a call to the unions: "Educate, agitate and organize"

Ringworm On Fresh Tattoo

civil society is largely excluded at COP!

For the nearly 400-strong international trade union delegation, there are now only nine access tickets to the Bella Center. Participation is completely open for Friday.

The ITUC and its members see these restrictions on access to COP with great concern. "The exclusion of almost all representatives of civil society in the crucial final days of COP 15 is unacceptable and must not be the norm", the ITUC General Secretary Guy Ryder said today in a press release.

There were trade unions and other civil society organizations that have developed the momentum since the launch of the Climate Convention in Rio in 1992. Since then, they play a crucial role in the discussions. Therefore, it is necessary that we can continue to participate fully in the negotiation process.

In addition, governments must finally fulfill their responsibilities and take out a serious agreement at the World Climate Conference in Copenhagen - before it's too late. We can not risk waiting any longer! Decisions must be taken now and follow the actions immediately. Governments must show the necessary flexibility and recognize that not all desirable can be achieved in this one week.

We need an ambitious agreement to finally tackle climate change. These basic principles such as solidarity and justice are necessary to achieve a just transition for workers. Otherwise the social, economic and environmental Costs increase dramatically.

hundreds of trade unionists are on the COP on the spot to put pressure on their government representatives: to find the trade union demands for a low carbon economy input into the Agreement. A major factor in the last more than 30 side-events of the union delegation. these organized with representatives from all over the world on specific sectors and their problems.

Choking And Aspiration

DGB trade union demands for transfers just transition and decent work at Federal Environment Minister Röttgen

Thanks to several years of intense lobbying succeeded the ITUC and its national members, in the final text of the crucial ad-hoc working group LCA (long-term actions of cooperation under the UNFCCC) has two central demands to be added.

The two claims concern the just change of jobs to cope with climate change (just transition ) seeks to create, in turn, decent work ( decent work) and qualified jobs.

It is now important that this section is not in the preamble in the further rounds of negotiations for a new world climate deal again deleted. Therefore presented the DGB German government delegation, headed by Environment Minister Röttgen, at COP a letter from Dietmar Hexel with the demands.

the margins of the COP, Dietmar Hexel exchanged with participants in the climate conference from, among other things, he spoke with Professor Hans Joachim Schellnhuber from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, Sharan Burrow, President of the ITUC, Guy Ryder, ITUC General Secretary. In addition, we met Joel Decallon by the ETUC, which is in charge of environmental and climate policies, as well as representatives of the "blue-green alliance", consisting of U.S. environmental groups and trade unions. The Solidarnocz colleagues were particularly interested in low carbon technologies in coal-fired power plants. Finally, there were discussions with representatives of the BDI and the RWE CEO Juergen Grossmann .

The DGB at COP 15: acute practical examples of resource efficiency

On 15 Held in December der DGB im Rahmen des IGB-Pavillions " Welt der Arbeit " sein erstes side-event: Jürgen Hoffmann vom DGB-Bildungswerk präsentierte das Projekt BMU/DGB/BW „ Ressourceneffizienz am Arbeitsplatz “. Er erläuterte Hintergrund und Praxisbeispiele aus Deutschland vor einem engagiert mitdiskutierenden Publikum.

On Wednesday Dietmar Hexel spoke in the second DGB-side event before high-profile and well studded audience to the central issue of climate change for sustainable energy supply. That federal Environment Minister Röttgen short notice and his Parliamentary Secretary rich because of the demonstrations in Copenhagen could not go to the Danish Trade Union House, the event did not diminish.

Dietmar Hexel answered numerous questions from the audience. These covered a wide range of topics, from energy, technical requirements - such as cogeneration, combined heat and CCS - To the participation in Board and operation. In addition, a new term growth beyond a sustainable energy supply was discussed.

showed great interest in the Bavarian Minister of State for Environment, Melanie Huml, chairman of BUND Professor Hubert Weiger and Professor Felix Ekardt from the University of Rostock. The General Secretary of the ITUC, Guy Ryder, stressed in his speech the importance of social dialogue between government and trade unions.

Bydgoskie Fabryki Mebli - Narożniki

The location itself!

Heike Kauls

not only the negotiations on the financial transfers are an industrial to developing countries come to a halt, the latter have already threatened with the failure of the negotiations.

Also, because today the first NGO groups despite official registry no longer have access to the Bella Center received escalates the situation. For there they are excluded from monitoring the negotiations of the United Nations. The Organization of the United Nations is now at 45,000 registered People out of control.

This has been exacerbated by an unannounced demonstration of NGOs this morning on. Then there was the NGO "Friends of Earth" despite official registry no longer have access to the Bella Center. Also, access to trade unions has been further limited, which has been the Chairman of the International Trade Union Confederation, Guy Ryder, sharply criticized. Thus, the support, influence and reporting on the negotiations more difficult for us.

is this sense it is a stroke of luck that the international unions can come up with the World of Work pavilion with an interesting alternative program of events. There, the DGB has presented on Tuesday evening, the joint project with the BMU to "resource efficiency". Today there was a discussion on "Sustainable energy supply in Germany," which had to take place because of the current rioting unfortunately without the announcement of the Federal Environment Minister. Nevertheless, the participation was great and with representatives of the Bavarian State Chancellery, the Bavarian Environment Ministry, the Chairman of BUND and Guy helm of the highest caliber.

Why Use These Materials To Build A Zulu Hut?

No money, no deal!

This statement ran the climate conference in Copenhagen far ahead and now plays an important role in the negotiations. Without the financial support to developing countries by developed countries, it will be a successor to the Kyoto Protocol give .

The EU has set

an important message: The EU has made the first negotiators at COP 15 concrete figures for financial support to developing countries. From 2010 to 2012, Member States shall annually 2.4 billion euros available. Germany will contribute 420 million euros annually, United Kingdom and France, each of around 400 million €. This emergency assistance will come primarily African and small island states benefit.

There is emerging, however, that an annual start-up funding is required from 10 billion U.S. dollars by the industrialized countries. Therefore, the previously promised 2.4 billion euros, the European Union are only a first step. not

climate off against development

issue is whether the funds are paid in addition to the existing development assistance, or to be counted against this. United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Spain support the request for an additional Financial transfer. Countries - including Germany - are of the opinion that the climate protection measures to be funded from development assistance.

The German and international trade union movement are of the view that resources for climate protection can not be set off against the anyway limited financial resources provided through development assistance and must!

Dietmar Hexel, Heike Kauls und Vertreter der Blue Green Alliance Dietmar Hexel in discussion with representatives of American Blue Green Alliance. Photo: Horst Heuter

That increased the ongoing negotiations, is also due to the fact that bids are missing for a long-term financial support. The European Union considers the amount of 100 billion U.S. dollars annually as necessary. The U.S. is strongly opposed, and Japan has announced it will submit its own proposal.

is Where the money come from?

Norway welcomes funding from the auction of emission allowances, which has only been available in Europe. France and Britain are proposing a Tobin tax . Denmark and the EU as a whole support a tax on shipping and air transport. At the present time is not yet clear which proposals will prevail in the end. plays

Remember that the side events of the DGB

Next Tuesday and Wednesday, the DGB organized WoW Pavilion two events. On Tuesday from 18.30 clock the cooperation project of DGB, DGB-education work and BMU "resource efficiency" is presented.

We are pleased that Environment Minister Röttgen on Wednesday, 16 December at 10.30 clock, taking part in our discussion. He will discuss with Dietmar Hexel about the plans for sustainable energy supply in Germany.

Both events are in the building of the confederation of Danish Unions from the Islands Brygge 32 D instead.

Make A Paragraph From These Words

Good things take time

This ancient wisdom is also in Copenhagen. After three hours it was done: Dietmar Hexel, Heike Kaul and Horst today were officially registered for the COP15, received her badge as a non-government representatives and were allowed into the venue: the Bella Center.

is really nice hall this site is not, but especially well-tempered, which is in view of the cold in Copenhagen very pleasant. We did the waiting queues in the open sorry when the entrance to the Bella Center just behind us was closed due to overcrowding for half an hour. So again lucky!

The first tour took us naturally to the official status of the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) and the meeting room, which the United Nations TUNGOs (Trade Union Non Governmental Organizations) are, therefore, the trade-union non-governmental organizations to provide . Most of my colleagues were the 400-strong trade union delegation on its way to the demonstration as part of the global climate Day of Action. Nevertheless, we met again a few trade unionists who were on the current negotiating text with regard to our claims analyzed. Before we made it the official German government delegation paid a visit, it was again in the Chamber. How to look at the photo, we do everything we can to represent Germany on the world climate summit.

Finally, a few facts about the COP15: Almost 20,000 participants from 192 countries, including 160 Heads of State and Government, which are expected towards the end of the conference will. Compared to recent climate change conferences this is a new record, which also brings the City of Copenhagen to the limit. Also this shows the great interest in this conference.

From Bali to Copenhagen

On the COP13 in Bali two years ago started, thanks to continuous work of the international trade union movement finally a process of opening the negotiating governments to our trade union demands.

refers As a result, now on in COP15 draft of a new climate deal - that is the official negotiating text - our call for a socially just transition at work again on the way to protect the climate . This does not mean that this will also be in the final agreements of the case. For new proposals are circulating daily, text blocks last fall or entire paragraphs away from the negotiating draft.

So enough work available for all trade unionists place, according to their national government representatives to "support" to press for the retention and inclusion of other union proposals. This mainly includes the demand for decent work. In contrast, business, especially the United States that have not ratified the relevant ILO conventions.

Another site, fixing the CO 2 reduction targets for industrialized and developing countries. It is necessary to developing and emerging countries with funding and technology transfer in addition to support for development assistance. Understandably, opinions vary widely when it comes to specific financial commitments. Speaking at present are ten billion U.S. dollars in the short term and long term 100 billion U.S. dollars annually. Specific periods, ensure to be discussed.

seems The reduction targets to enforce the requirement that developed countries emit by the year 2020, 25 percent to 40 percent less greenhouse gas than in 1990. is also needed for developing countries Reduction targets negotiated, which is currently still unclear.

All in all, we look positively to the second week of negotiations in Copenhagen.

Small Beautiful Agony

View - What do I expect from Copenhagen

Dr. Horst Heuter Horst Heuter

After several world climate conferences in which I have since COP 1 in 1995 participated in person in Berlin, I think that the current COP 15 in Copenhagen, the best starting for a scientifically sound action against the rapidly advancing anthropogenic climate change provides. Never before has a global consensus on sustainable development and the realization by a change in the face of global economic crisis as clear as the urgent need for a Dietmar Hexel world full protection of the environment.

It can give no plan B because we have not a planetary B.
that already in Copenhagen itself a binding global climate agreement is adopted, is not expected, but more than mere indicative agreements.

And finally: never before have the trade unions as present at a COP in Copenhagen. If this is not a good sign ...
