to 1992 the Rio Earth Summit we were
to 1992 the Rio Earth Summit we were very enthusiastic
very enthusiastic
very enthusiastic there was euphoria that we have found
there was euphoria that we have found
there was euphoria that we have found the solution sustainable development but

in 1992 and afterwards we discovered
in 1992 and afterwards we discovered that it is difficult to implement and
that it is difficult to implement and
that it is difficult to implement and therefore what we did is we did it a
therefore what we did is we did it a
therefore what we did is we did it a small group of us in the 1990s decided
small group of us in the 1990s decided
small group of us in the 1990s decided that we have to have a step-by-step
that we have to have a step-by-step
that we have to have a step-by-step approach climbing the mountain because

it’s such a complicated issue and first
it’s such a complicated issue and first we have to find what is called green
we have to find what is called green
we have to find what is called green growth and if you look at this diagram

what you see here is that you try to do
what you see here is that you try to do all three together see all three phases
all three together see all three phases
all three together see all three phases are not happening it’s like a love

the second stage where we bring all
the second stage where we bring all three together ok so those two get

is the situation we are in today post
is the situation we are in today post 2015 hopefully we will find that
2015 hopefully we will find that
2015 hopefully we will find that approach right let’s apply this to this

right and you see the little cartoon at the bottom the south the poor feel that
the bottom the south the poor feel that
the bottom the south the poor feel that the rich countries are asking them to
the rich countries are asking them to
the rich countries are asking them to reduce their emissions they are hardly

doing any emissions at all right so
doing any emissions at all right so there is a issue of climate justice how
there is a issue of climate justice how
there is a issue of climate justice how do we solve this problem with this green
do we solve this problem with this green

the safe limit for high emissions but
the safe limit for high emissions but also you are rich and many countries are
also you are rich and many countries are
also you are rich and many countries are in the middle at point B so the first
in the middle at point B so the first
in the middle at point B so the first step is for the rich countries to

step is for the rich countries to transform that is they have to reduce
transform that is they have to reduce
transform that is they have to reduce the emissions but they can continue to

doing this
doing this finding the transformation path
finding the transformation path
finding the transformation path and then in that tunnel that you can see
and then in that tunnel that you can see
and then in that tunnel that you can see you can find also the inclusive path
you can find also the inclusive path
you can find also the inclusive path which is not only green growth but it
which is not only green growth but it
which is not only green growth but it also includes the poor so it also
also includes the poor so it also
also includes the poor so it also addresses the issue of poverty and there
