Recommendations of Thai Civil Society[i]
on the Thai Government’s Positions
Towards the 15th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention
on Climate Change (COP 15), Copenhagen, Denmark,
and Related National Policy Formulation

 

Background

This document represents comments and recommendations of the Thai civil society (TCS) towards the forthcoming negotiations in the 15th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP 15).  It reflects our concerns on the dangerous climate change which is increasing in its frequency and severity especially to developing countries, especially among local communities, indigenous peoples and the poor.  The main cause of climate change is an ever increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) concentration in the atmosphere from the historical emissions under the conventional development paradigm that has been focusing upon economic growth, while disregarding the security of humankinds and social justice in a number of areas.  Furthermore, attempts to deal with the dangerous climate change, as seen for more than a decade, have not yielded any progress or promise to slow down the climate catastrophes.  On a contrary, governments of developed countries have remained ignorant to take urgent and immediate actions to cope with the dangerous climate change.
