In the third seminar from the Cabot Institute seminar series on energy and climate change policy, Robert Falkner (Centre for Climate Change, Economics & Policy, LSE) will present - Back on the road? International climate policy after Durban

The international climate conference in Durban ended with a broad agreement to negotiate a global treaty on climate mitigation. This is to be signed by 2015 and in force by 2020. All major emitters have agreed to this, but the legal status of a future deal – and whether it will produce timely mitigation effects – remain in question. Is international climate policy back on the road? Or is this the beginning of the end of traditional multilateral climate diplomacy? 

Discussants: Catherine Mitchell, Exeter & Bronwen Morgan, Bristol

A light lunch will be provided.  For further information contact e.fortin@bristol.ac.uk
