WASHINGTON— Senior representatives from the World Resources Institute will hold a press call to provide insights ahead of the international climate negotiations in Lima, Peru, in early December. As momentum builds for a global climate agreement in 2015, this round of climate talks will be a particularly important moment.

On Tuesday, November 18, WRI experts will discuss key issues that will shape the negotiations, including crafting countries’ post-2020 emissions contributions; the role of the U.S. and China in the negotiations; the status of climate finance; and the role of forests in limiting emissions.
