• Renewed commitment to multilateralism / a rules- • LCA track needs work
based system
• The Lack of Ambition remains a crucial challenge
• Pathway to a comprehensive and inclusive effort and the absence of Urgency continues to be a
worry
• Acknowledgement of current failings / commitment
to ambitious goal • Pledge and review and lower levels of ambition
remain in the short-term
• A new alliance / a new voice
• Financial architecture is not the same as financial
resources
• An opportunity to avoid collision course between
historical responsibility and environmental integrity

9. The challenges from Durban
The Emissions Gap: Much needs to be done to
generate increased urgency and ambition in the
regime. The current emissions pathways put 2C ll
beyond reach. This is the most immediate challenge
of the climate regime.
Equity and CBDR have not been resolved: With one
group of countries claiming that the Firewall has been
breached and another using every statement to
reaffirm the commitment to CBDR it is clear that the
equity debate is putting major players on a collision
course.
The ambitious majority must not become a casualty
of these divisions: Much of the success in Durban can
be traced to the alliance built between the EU, LDCs
and AOSIS. This alliance needs to be sustained to push
for progressive outcomes.
