Sep 06, 2013

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Gleaner - JAMAICA MUST this year push for not only "adequate and predictable" financing, but also for further work on the international mechanism on loss and damage, to protect it and other vulnerable countries from slow-onset events such as ocean acidification.
So said Clifford Mahlung, one of the island's seasoned climate negotiators and the Latin America and Caribbean representative on the Adaptation Committee of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
His comments come ahead of the Warsaw climate talks set for later this year.
