What do you think the obligations would be of developed country Parties to support the efforts of developing country Parties to build clean, climate-resilient futures (Finance: Art. 9, Technology Transfer: Art. 10 and capacity-building support: Art. 11), while for the first time encouraging voluntary contributions by other Parties?

They should priorities loss and damage fund as much as they prioritize mitigation and adaptation. Rich should also have to raise funds from fining non-compliant companies to fund the loses and damage. The fund should made more of grants and subsidies to reduce the burden which has been posed already in the global South. The global North should fulfil the 100 billion target per year of loss and damage rather than continue promising with no deliverey

I think they should promote technology development and transfer on favorable, preferential, and concessional terms tailored to developing country needs and support endogenous capacities and remove barriers to sharing intellectual property.

Finance, technology transfer and capacity building are the obligations of developed countries. Developed countries have used a major portion of carbon budget and they have high per capita emission. It is their obligation to finance environmentally friendly measures and fulfill their promises of funding without using this route as profit making by extending credit or putting conditions on funds. They have necessary technologies to limit emissions and these should be transferred to developing countries to collectively tackle climate change. Capacity building can ameliorate a lot after funding and technology transfer. Actions should be done in their purest form and by avoiding any kind of debt trap.

Please reply to this post with your key points and views. Also, reply to at least any of the members' posts. -The YOUNGO E-Learning Team In order to achieve the long-term temperature goal (Art. 2), we need new (ideally net-zero) technologies among other things. Especially early on in the technology cycle, unit costs will be high and possibly prohibitive for developing countries. Developed countries may directly subsidize development and production of new technologies. Some funds of the Green Climate Fund might go to supporting other Parties in acquiring these technologies and expertise in operating the equipment. Another option is subsidizing the production of climate-friendly technologies so that it becomes cheaper to buy for possible customers while at the same time helping producers scale up production. On a more general level, the establishment and sharing of frameworks and supporting tools (e.g. for policy-makers) across Parties and industries can lower the administrative barriers which must be crossed before new technologies or processes can be implemented. Common standards will be crucial to avoid duplicated efforts.

Hi Mary, I really like your mention of access to intellectual property. The perspective of getting rich with a breakthrough invention may be a driver for some actors researching key climate-friendly technologies. While such an undoubtedly valuable contribution should be rewarded in some way, it should not be at the expense of a swift and wide-spread adoption. In the case of Covid vaccines, we saw that perceived promises may not be kept - to the detriment of some, especially developing countries. It might be interesting to discuss possible provisions to avoid similar restricted access to key green technologies. Without having done prior research on this, I wonder about the feasibility of certain provisions regarding adapted patent protections or patentability of green technologies. Similar provisions exist e.g. for medicine (procedures etc.) precisely because society's interest of having access to medicine is weighed higher than the inventor's right to controlling usage of their invention.

Please reply to this post with your key points and views. Also, reply to at least any of the members' posts. It's clear that developed country Parties have significant obligations to support developing country Parties in their efforts to transition to clean, climate-resilient futures. These obligations include providing financial support (outlined in Article 9), facilitating technology transfer (outlined in Article 10), and offering capacity-building support (outlined in Article 11). Additionally, the agreement also encourages voluntary contributions by other Parties, marking a departure from previous frameworks. This collective effort aims to address global climate challenges and ensure equitable participation and progress towards climate goals.
