La gouvernance est l'élément clé de toute approche proposée pour modifier le climat, en particulier du point de vue des nations vulnérables, déclare le professeur Saleemul Huq, directeur du Centre international pour le changement climatique et le développement (ICCCAD), dans une interview accordée à "C2GTalk". Il est donc extrêmement important que les nations vulnérables au climat aient leur mot à dire lorsque des décisions sont prises concernant des approches susceptibles de modifier le climat, notamment l'élimination du dioxyde de carbone et la modification du rayonnement solaire.

Governance is the key element in any climate-altering approaches being proposed, particularly from the point of view of climate vulnerable nations, says Professor Saleemul Huq in an interview with C2GTalk. His greatest concern is that decisions that have repercussions for the most vulnerable will be taken without them having a chance to take part in the discussion, so it is extremely important that climate vulnerable nations have a say when decisions are taken regarding climate-altering approaches, including carbon dioxide removal and solar radiation modification.
Professor Saleemul Huq is the director of the International Centre for Climate Change and Development (ICCCAD) and chair of the Climate Vulnerable Forum Expert Advisory Group. Huq is an expert on the links between climate change and sustainable development, particularly from the perspective of developing countries. He leads the annual Gobeshona Global Conference, which brings together scholars, policymakers, researchers, and practitioners from around the world to discuss climate change. Huq was the lead author of the chapter on adaptation and sustainable development in the Third Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and was the lead author of the chapter on adaptation and mitigation in the Fourth Assessment Report. His current focus is on supporting the engagement of the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
