Two weeks of intense work on technical issues and preparation of decisions for adoption at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP27) in Sharm el-Sheikh in November ended in Bonn with little progress, last week.

Building on the many mandates that emerged from the UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow last year, discussions held on a range of important topics, including the need for more ambitious climate action, deeper cuts in greenhouse gas emissions, enhanced resilience to adapt to the effects of climate change and financial support for developing countries.

Key outstanding issues that still need to be resolved relate to building adaptation to the inevitable impacts of climate change, which include ever more frequent and intense heat waves, flood and storms, and loss and damage, along with necessary financial support. On the other hand, important work has been launched on urgently scaling up mitigation ambition and implementation.

The Chair of the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice , Tosi Mpanu Mpanu, said: “Science has been a central focus of this year’s Bonn Climate Change Conference. It is vital that the reports presented by the IPCC, as well as the science-policy interface, are reflected and that negotiators heed the call on the urgency of the climate challenge. We have seen some good progress here in Bonn. But governments need to urgently act on the stark warnings we have been hearing.

MEANWHILE, climate change advocates said the Bonn Climate Conference showed the disconnect between the negotiation rooms and the reality on the ground of people suffering from climate-induced loss and damage, as discussions across various issues offered no new breakthroughs – on overall finance, adaptation and emission reduction actions.
