Plenary hall on Day 1 of the Bonn Climate Change Conference

This morning, a new round of climate negotiations opened in Bonn. The negotiations are taking place in the former federal parliament of Germany (before the capital city was moved to Berlin), a building made of glass in order to symbolize transparency. The co-chair of the talks emphasized the relevance of this theme as a principle to guide the negotiations. Stakeholders hope that the coming five days will provide an opportunity to move from conceptual discussions into more substantial dialogues.
