This was second in a series of meetings being held in an effort to find political consensus on key issues of contention in the lead up to a landmark global climate agreement expected to be reached at the UN climate conference, COP21, in Paris in December.

Manuel Pulgar Vidal (Peruvian Minister of Environment and current COP President) along with Laurent Fabius (French Foreign Minister and incoming COP President) are hosting the series of ministerial consultations. This second consultation was attended by more than 35 ministers, including those from the United States, United Kingdom, China, Germany, Egypt and India.

From UAE the Permanent Representative to the International Renewable Energy Agency and Director of Energy and Climate Change at the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs , Dr Thani Ahmad Al Zeyoudi led the delegation .
He said that ?The United Arab Emirates is committed to supporting France, as incoming President of COP21, in its efforts to find effective and fair solutions to the global challenge of climate change. Through our active participation at these discussions, we are working to enhance cooperation among participants and are gaining recognition as leaders in this field.The UAE is showing that climate solutions can be made effective and competitive. By sharing and building on our experience, we are helping the world deal with the major global challenge of climate change while creating economic opportunities and building a more diversified economy for the UAE.?

Well this is a great initiative by the UN and a great step for these countries attending it . So that we can quickly and easily cope up with the sudden climatic changes all over the globe with suffering much .
