ABSTRACT
This chapter aims to stabilize greenhouse-gas concentration in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system, within a timeframe sufficient to allow ecosystems to adapt naturally to climate change. It shows that food production is not threatened and provides to enable economic development to proceed in a sustainable manner. The Global Environment Facility (GEF) supports the building of capacity of developing countries to implement the Convention and prepare national communications to the Conference of the Parties (COP). The GEF promotes bilateral and multilateral co-financing and the leveraging of private sector participation and resources. The COP shall keep under regular review the implementation of the Convention and any related instruments that the Conference may adopt and shall make the decisions necessary to promote the effective implementation of the Convention. The Convention defines a mechanism for providing financial resources for projects which address climate change.
