La Conferenza ONU sui cambiamenti climatici 2010 si terrà a Cancún, in Messico, dal 29 novembre al 10 dicembre del 2010.[1]


The conference is officially referred to as the 16th session of the Conference of the Parties (COP 16) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the 6th session of the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties (CMP 6) to the Kyoto Protocol. In addition, the two permanent subsidiary bodies of the UNFCCC–the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA) and the Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI)–will hold their 33rd sessions. The 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference extended the mandates of the two temporary subsidiary bodies–the Ad Hoc Working Group on Further Commitments for Annex I Parties under the Kyoto Protocol (AWG-KP) and the Ad Hoc Working Group on Long-term Cooperative Action under the Convention (AWG-LCA)–and they will meet as well.

Four preparatory rounds of negotiations (i.e. sessions of the AWG-KP and the AWG-LCA) were to be held during 2010. The first three of these were in Bonn, Germany, from 9 to 11 April, 1 to 11 June (in conjunction with the 32nd sessions of SBSTA and SBI), and 2 to 6 August. The Bonn talks have been reported as ending in failure.[2][3][4] The fourth round of talks in Tianjin, China, made minimal progress and was marked by a clash between the US and China.[5][6][7]

In August 2010, Ban Ki-moon stated that he doubts member states will reach a new global agreement to address global warming,[8] but after the Tianjin talks in October Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), said, "This week has got us closer to a structured set of decisions that can be agreed in Cancun ... This is the greatest societal and economic transformation that the world has ever seen." Other commentators spoke of a positive spirit of negotiation and of paving the way for agreement in Cancun.[9]

In the lead up to COP16, the leaders of the world's most climate-change vulnerable nations will be meeting in Kiribati to attend the Tarawa Climate Change Conference (TCCC) from 9 to 10 November 2010. The ultimate objective of the TCCC is to reduce the number and intensity of various fault lines between parties to the COP process, explore elements of agreement between the parties and thereby to support preparation for COP16. Based on the lessons learned in the COP process to-date, the TCCC proposes a more inclusive format of consultations, involving key partners among major developed and developing nations.[10]
