Summary:The divergence of interests between parties at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is a crucial barrier to overcome, particularly considering post-Kyoto negotiations and the growing understanding that the so-called key developing countries must accept more specific commitments under the UNFCCC umbrella. In November 2005, the UNFCCC’s 11th Conference (CoP 11) and 1st Meeting (MoP 1) of the Parties advanced the talks on almost 40 subjects, including compliance mechanisms, alternative policies to reduce deforestation, adaptation to the adverse effects posed by climate change and a post-2012 regime, when new targets would be adopted by developed (Annex I) and maybe developing (non-Annex I) countries.
