Copenhagen Outcome

No legally binding actions or objectives. As usual a lot of good intentions from everyone . . . What Mauritius proposed was 25% reduction in green house gases by 2020 without any aid or 65% reduction with aid by 2025.

May be the solution would have been to force countries which are geographically well situated to build CSP to generate electricity from the sun instead of burning fossil fuels. By CSP it would mean plants which would have thermal storage for night production and assisted by fossil fuels only when required.

Copenhagen, what can we expect?

What will be Mauritius participation in implementing the treaty that will be finalized? It can only help in promoting the grid code faster where the country will be forced to reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by 2020. The question is by how much, or will it be exempted due to its small size or threat due to the rising sea level? Will the country find funds to finance the incentives for the grid code?
