The head of the World Wildlife Fund’s office of Climate and Energy Practice was upbeat about the results of the 22nd Conference of Parties (COP22) talks here, saying that the follow-up negotiations to last December’s landmark climate talks in Paris “put substance” behind the global pact to reduce harmful emissions.

“The UN climate talks continue to be filled with twists and turns, but they have delivered what they needed to this week – putting substance behind the promise of the Paris Agreement so it can be fully implemented. The Marrakech work has not been the most glamorous, but it’s a key step in the chain reaction needed to roll out the agreement,” WWF International’s Manuel Pulgar-Vidal said in a statement.
