Please join the Center on Global Energy Policy for a panel discussion previewing the upcoming climate negotiations in Paris. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) meeting, beginning November 30th in Paris, is the culmination of a four-year negotiating process and will set the stage for international climate change cooperation for many years to come. This event will discuss the obstacles to achieving a successful agreement in Paris, what the prospects are for an agreement, and how such an agreement might impact climate policy in countries around the world. It will also address the many other initiatives going on in Paris by public and private actors that are intended to catalyze more ambitious action on climate change. Speakers will include:
Majid Al Suwaidi, Lead Climate Change Negotiator and Consular General in New York for the United Arab Emirates;
