In late 2008, London’s Christian Aid published Setting the bar high in Poznan: Christian Aid’s vision for urgent and equitable global action on climate change.  In this fine report, GDRs is presented in an admirably straightforward and effective manner.   In the process, it helps to frame a major campaign – Countdown to Copenhagen –which Christian Aid, along with the other members of its Aprodev network, launched at the 14th Conference of Parties in Poland,

In late 2008, Oxfam International published Climate, Poverty, and Justice: What the Poznan UN climate conference needs to deliver for a fair and effective global climate regime.   It draws on GDRs explicitly and at length to illustrate the implications of principle-based effort sharing. For example: “if developed countries reduced their domestic emissions by 25–40 per cent, this would still leave them far short of meeting their full fair share of the global effort.”

Holmes Hummel, a highly respected US climate policy analyst, featured GDRs very prominently in her excellent report back from Poznan.  You can find her comments, listed under Greenhouse Development Rights, on the Poznan debrief section of her website.   See also the Politics of a Durable Deal: Justice as Realism section of her Climate Policy Design lecture series.

CO2: Vers Quelle Équité en 2020?, a report (in French) by the World Wildlife Fund on equitable emissions reductions objectives for Europe and France in 2020 that is based, in part, on our recent report: A Call to Leadership: A Greenhouse Development Rights analysis of the EU’s proposed 2020 targets.

“Coordination SUD” (Solidarité, Urgence, Dévelopement), the national platform of French international solidarity NGOs, has published Équité et ambition : les incontournables du futur régime climatique post-2012, a summary report of its recent (September, 2008) workshop of climate policy and equity.  This report (published in English as Equity and ambition : The essentials for the future climate regime beyond 2012) is strongly based in the GDRs analysis.
