High expectations on high-level CDM policy dialogue panel
Summary
Carbon Market Watch outlines its priorities for the high-level panel reviewing the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), emphasizing the need for the panel to assess the mechanism's impact on mitigation and sustainable development, ensure environmental integrity among co-existing market mechanisms, and improve stakeholder involvement.
Key insights
- The high-level panel reviewing the CDM has a mandate to retool the mechanism to serve as the primary instrument for financing low-carbon development in developing countries after 2012, focusing on internal workings, future direction, and impacts on mitigation and sustainable development.
- Carbon Market Watch urges the panel to reassess the suitability of specific CDM project types for a low-carbon economy, create incentives for developing countries to increase emission reductions, and ensure the environmental integrity of co-existing market mechanisms.
- Carbon Market Watch submitted views to the panel covering several technical and social issues, including additionality, HFC-23 abatement, human rights, and grievance mechanisms.
