The Gold Center, the COP-3 venue in Buenos Aires's Parque Norte
|
Delegates began arriving and registering Sunday at the Parque Norte in Buenos Aires, Argentina, the site for the Third Conference of Parties to the Biodiversity Convention (COP-3). No formal negotiations were held, as the meeting is scheduled to open Monday morning. The
opening COP-3 issue of the
Earth Negotiations Bulletin summarizes discussions and decisions from previous meetings under the Convention, while delegates and observers wonder in the corridors about the implications of the ambitious agenda they set for themselves at last year's COP. You can also download the opening
Earth Negotiations Bulletin in either
text or
PDF format.
