15th Session of the Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC (COP 15) and fifth session of the Meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (COP15/MOP5)

The goal of COP 15 is to enter into a binding global climate agreement at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen. The agreement will apply to the period after 2012.

The Danish Government’s ambition for the agreement is to include as many countries as possible, and to contribute to a reduction in man-made greenhouse gases which have a negative effect on our climate system.

The Government will therefore put all its efforts into obtaining an agreement that combines respect for the environment, living standards and long-term security of energy supply in the best way possible.
