| Résumé: | These reports are the result of consultations which were conducted in 2008 in Aruba,
Barbados, Netherlands Antilles, Dominican Republic, Guyana, Jamaica, Montserrat, Saint Lucia
and Trinidad and Tobago. The objective was to obtain relevant information that would inform a
Stern-type report where the economics of climate change would be examined for the Caribbean
subregion. These reports will be complimented by future assessments of the costs of the
“business as usual”, adaptation and mitigation responses to the potential impacts of climate
change.
It is anticipated that the information contained in each country report would provide a
detailed account of the environmental profile and would, therefore, provide an easy point of
reference for policymakers in adapting existing policy or in formulating new ones. ECLAC
continues to be available to the CDCC countries to provide technical support in the area of
sustainable development. |
