CONTENDING ISSUES TO BE RESOLVED AT PARIS 2015 CLIMATE CHANGE CONVENTION

The goal of the 2015 Paris convention on Climate change "to keep the global temperature below at 1.5 or 2 degree celsius to achieve zero carbon emission growth by 2060 - 80" has met contentious issues that centres on long term quantified emissions reduction for a 2050 target, finance for developing countries, updated targets for countries based on stocktaking of carbon dioxide, equitable distribution of the remaining carbon budget for the world, and making explicit the responsibility of developing countries versus developed nations. All these issues are set to be disussed further in the Final draft climate agreement on the Monday (7th December 2015).
