The 14th Conference of the Parties to the Climate Convention (COP 14) will be held on 1st-12th December 2008 in Poznan, Poland. It will be a milestone along the road to a climate policy agreement beyond 2012 that could be adopted in Copenhagen, during the COP15 in December 2009. Energie-Cités together with other European networks of local authorities (Climate Alliance, CEMR, Eurocities) and in relation with ICLEI, is actively participating in the preparatory process of the “Bali-Poznan-Copenhagen” Local Government Climate Roadmap.
The objective of this initiative is to give higher visibility to local authorities in this worldwide process and to promote the huge potential and responsibility they have in meeting the goals set up by the international community. Energie-Cités intends to link the Covenant of Mayors commitment very closely with the UN process and is, therefore, encouraging its members to attend the Local Government Climate Sessions due to take place on 9th-11th December in Konin and Poznan.
Energie-Cités, in close cooperation with the Polish Association of Local authorities (ZMP) and the Municipality of Bielsko-Biala, has actively contributed to the ZMP Congress that was held in Bielsko-Biala (25th-26th September) including a special session on energy and climate change.
For further information, please download the first announcement of the Local Government Climate Sessions in Poznan and fill in the registration form if you wish to participate.
