Dr Anne-Marie Warris is the Lloyd’s Register’s leading global climate change expert and will be representing the Group during the 15th Conference of the Parties (COP) negotiations in Copenhagen, December 7-18. She has been a delegate at most of the COP’s since the 1997 Kyoto Summit. Dr Warris is the author of the Voluntary Carbon Standard (VCS) and currently the chairperson for the ISO 14001 technical committee as well as the chairperson for the UK Emissions Trading Group (ETG). In episode 1 of the Lloyd’s Register Copenhagen Podcast series, she provides an overview of the Copenhagen conference, including what to expect, who might play a key role, which nations will be at the centre of negotiations and a closer look at which industries are likely to be most affected by any possible global deal that may be signed during the conference.
Dr Warris talked about the best possible outcome of the Copenhagen negotiations, “The most favourable is a deal that covers all countries, all sectors and gives us a sort of reassurance that this planet will survive for all of us and for all of our children. We want something that ensures that we limit temperature rises and that we manage adaptation.”
