Dear Friends,

Estimados amigos:

Chers amis,

We, the Indigenous Peoples of the world, united in the face of the climate crisis and the lack of political will of the States, especially the biggest emitters of greenhouse gases, demand the immediate adoption of legally binding agreements with shared but differentiated responsibilities, to halt global warming and to define alternative models of development in harmony with Mother Earth.

Thank you Mr. Chair, I speak to you on behalf of the International Indigenous Peoples’ Forum on Climate Change. We recognize that the Kyoto Protocol is the only legally binding international instrument we have to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Gracias Señor Presidente,Me dirijo a ustedes en nombre del Foro Internacional de los Pueblos Indígenas sobre Cambio Climático.Reconocemos que el Protocolo de Kioto es el único instrumento internacional jurídicamente vinculante que tenemos para reducir las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero.Los pueblos indígenas, especialmente en África, ya están sufriendo los impactos del cambio climático. No tenemos tiempo para esperar más. Necesitamos un compromiso para un resultado jurídicamente vinculante.
