This report by Friends of the Earth International (FoEI) critiques the outcomes of the COP15 (Copenhagen) and subsequent climate negotiations leading up to COP17 (Durban). It argues that the international community is failing to address the climate crisis due to a reliance on voluntary pledges and market-based mechanisms rather than legally binding emissions reductions. The document calls for a systemic shift away from neoliberalism and fossil fuels toward a 'genuine green economy' based on climate justice, historical responsibility of industrialized nations, and the protection of indigenous and local community rights.
