The Kyoto Protocol, the clean development mechanism, and the building and construction sector

This report is prepared for the UNEP sustainable buildings and construction initiative.

There is great potential to improve the CDM in ways that would
encourage the development of more energy efficiency projects in buildings for the CDM, and at the same time would more directly support the sustainable development benefits generated by such
projects.

No change in climate

The global negotiations, under way in Poznan (Poland) on working out a successor to the Kyoto protocol on climate change that expires in 2012, have been strategically mistimed, and it would be a surprise if they delivered any satisfactory build-up to the final Copenhagen conference scheduled for a year from now.
