This year’s global climate talks, COP28, ended last week in Dubai. The two week marathon of engagements and negotiations ended with several key outcomes ranging from a transition away from fossil fuels to financial pledges to support vulnerable countries. Guyana was quite interested in these talks particularly because it wanted to champion its low carbon development strategy and its carbon credits venture. At the end of COP28 though, Vice President Dr. Bharrat Jagdeo said Guyana was disappointed that the carbon market talks failed to advance.
