Climate negotiations are continually plagued by competing national and business interests that create stumbling blocks to success.

They identify major problems, including great power strategies, leadership, the role of NGOs, capacity-and knowledge-building, airline emissions, risk transfer instruments, cost benefit analysis, the IPCC, and verification and institutional design.
