(Madrid, December 9, 2010) is time for ministers to make decisions in the climate negotiations in Cancun, choosing among the options that are made explicit at the technical level in recent days.
" The negotiators have taken the debate on technical issues as far as it possible, leaving the political decisions for ministers "says Sol Oyuela, Climate Justice Advisory InspirAction the NGO.
" ministers now need to take action on the basis of texts that have been heavily worked. And if we want the results of these negotiations have a real impact on the lives of poor people facing to climate change every day, we need to make courageous decisions .
" Indecision cost lives. Failure to take appropriate decisions on major issues such as mitigation and transparency, hinder progress in areas such as financing climate adaptation and REDD, with an immediate impact on the lives of the world's poorest people .
Sol Oyuela also urged Ministers of the European Union to take the lead and demonstrate that commitment on major issues could . Without commitment and leadership, negotiations will not have the expected results.
