Abstract:

In 2005, IGES launched the consultation "The Asia-Pacific Consultations on Climate Regime Beyond 2012" to promote new and constructive thinking in the Asia-Pacific region on future actions against climate change beyond 2012, and to contribute to the shaping of a future climate regime that adequately reflects the concerns and developmental aspirations of countries in the region. The consultations were held on a national and regional basis in six Asian nations: China, India, Indonesia, Japan, the Republic of Korea and Viet Nam. The results of the first round of the consultations in 2005 are summarised in this book.
