“We Are Not Begging for Aid”

Chief Bolivian Negotiator Says Developed Countries Owe Climate Debt - entrevista da Democracy Now

One of the countries leading the call for just climate reparations here at the COP15 talks is Bolivia. We speak with Bolivia’s chief climate negotiator, Angelica Navarro. “Twenty percent of the population have actually emitted more than two-thirds of the emissions. And as a result, they have caused more than 90 percent of the increase in temperatures,” Navarro says. “We are not begging for aid; we want developed countries to comply with their obligation and pay their debt.”

ANGELICA NAVARRO: What the Danish text seems to do is a merger of the two, which impose new obligations to developing countries. So we are the ones who are supposed now to be mitigating. And I’m asking, what will a developing country, rural men or women—indigenous women in Bolivia doesn’t even have electricity—will mitigate? And for what? So that developed countries can even have still have two, three cars?
