In the course of the first week, I could observe how the negotiations went from structural issues to more technical, content-based discussions. Some of the bodies already produced informal notes and draft texts which ultimately will lead to the creation of a rulebook for the<br \/>\nimplementation of the <a href=\"http:\/\/bigpicture.unfccc.int\/#content-the-paris-agreemen\">Paris Agreement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>According to the big <strong>COP stock-taking plenary<\/strong> on Saturday and an overview article by <a href=\"http:\/\/climatetracker.org\/cop23-week-1-wrap\/\">Climate Tracker<\/a>, the main points being discussed in the different bodies in the first week of COP23 have been:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pre-2020 actions<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Paris Agreement commitments only begin in 2020. However, as the COP president Frank Bainimarama says: \u201cW<em>e must not waste time<\/em>\u201d. For this reason, especially developing countries, demanded pre-2020 actions to already get started with mitigation activities to combat climate change and have a chance at limiting global warming to below 1.5\u00b0C in comparison to pre-industrial levels. This is very crucial for island states, for example in the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.1point5.info\/en\/\"> Caribbean<\/a>. Unfortunately, so far the pre-2020 ambitions have not been assigned to any working group or official agenda item of this year\u00b4s COP.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs)<\/strong><br \/>\nOne of the main points being discussed in this context is how and when the reporting and updating of the NDCs should take place. Developing countries and developed countries might face differentiated processes here.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Loss and Damage<\/strong><br \/>\nAs nicely explained by <a href=\"http:\/\/climatetracker.org\/cop-23-need-know-loss-damage\/\">Climate Tracker<\/a>: \u201c<em>loss and damage is a concept where rich countries, who have historical responsibility for climate change, are asked to be liable to developing countries, who are already facing climate change impacts<\/em>.\u201d Unfortunately, negotiations on this topic ended in controversial discussions when some developed countries questioned the scientific evidence necessary to correlate extreme weather events\/natural disasters with climate change.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finance<\/strong><br \/>\nOne of the crucial issues for the implementation of the Paris Agreement is the finance of all required measures, e.g. in form of an Adaptation Fund which can help the developing countries to tackle climate change impacts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Talanoa dialogue<\/strong><br \/>\nAlso known as <a href=\"http:\/\/unfccc.int\/items\/10265.php\">Facilitative dialogue<\/a>, the Talanoa dialogue has been introduced by the Fijian COP presidency to have inclusive, participatory and transparent conversations in which people listen to each other and respect the other one\u00b4s perspective. It is supposed to be held in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Other important topics covered in the meetings were the reporting guidelines\/ implementation for <strong>adaptation<\/strong> and <strong>mitigation<\/strong>, the <strong>global stock-take, <\/strong>a<strong> gender<\/strong> <strong>action plan<\/strong> and features, such as <strong>transparency<\/strong>, <strong>equity<\/strong>, <strong>capacity building<\/strong> and <strong>technology transfer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1217\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1217\" style=\"width: 723px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1217 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/globalchangeecology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/P1070027-e1510686584358-1024x477.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"723\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/globalchangeecology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/P1070027-e1510686584358-1024x477.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/globalchangeecology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/P1070027-e1510686584358-300x140.jpg 300w, https:\/\/globalchangeecology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/P1070027-e1510686584358-768x358.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1217\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Look at New York plenary hall in Bula Zone 1.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The parties still have a lot of work ahead and with ministers arriving in the second week of COP23, one can hope that negotiations progress faster and that the delegates agree on how to implement the different components of the Paris Agreement.<\/p>\n<p>I feel honored to be given the unique opportunity to observe the negotiations at the UN Climate Change Conference 2017.
