Written by Firdaus Cahyadi - Translated by Stephanie A. Surya Today (14/12) Bali Roadmap is imprisoned by developed countries’ interest. In one side, they willing to implement technology-transfer, but on the other hand they refused to agree on emission cut target. As usual, developed countries demanded developing countries, such as China and India, to have equal emission target. Whereas they counted the greenhouse gas (GHG) per capita, the sum in countries such as China and India were still under US and Japan. As a result, journalists in the press room started to worried because the press conference scrambled-up.Indication that UNFCCC result would be depended on developed countries’ interest could be seen from World Bank’s and ADB’s active promotion on funding project related to emission cut in developing countries, either for CDM or forestry sector. As we know, US is the biggest shareholder in World Bank, while Japan is the biggest shareholder in ADB. Meanwhile, CDM and emission cut in forestry sector are parts of carbon-trading, which based on carbon offset project. Carbon offset is for helping developed countries in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. Every emission cut in the developing country through CDM and forestry projects funded by developed country, through carbon market, will be counted as emission cut in developed country. Although Bali roadmap on mitigation target agreed, developed country would conduct it by carbon offset via carbon market. So, it still not conducted by changing their greedy consumption and production pattern towards fossil fuel. |
