Ujoyine unobhala-jikelele weCARICOM u-Edwin Carrington kunye neNkulumbuso yaseSaint Lucia uStephenson King ekugxininiseni ukubaluleka kokugcina isikhundla esiqinileyo sokunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwegesi yeGreen House (GHG) njengoko le nto, wayiphikisa ukuba ibalulekile “ukuba sifuna ukunqanda intlekele yehlabathi. imo iyatshintsha."
Ngokubhekiselele kwiSibhengezo seLiliendaal malunga noTshintsho lweMozulu kunye noPhuhliso olukhutshwe yiNkomfa ye-30 yeeNtloko zikaRhulumente ngoJulayi 2009, usihlalo weCARICOM wathi iSibhengezo kufuneka sisebenze njengesikhokelo esiluncedo nesingenakulungeleka kwiingxoxo. “Ukubaluleka kweLiliendaal Declaration on Climate Change and Development akunakubaxwa kule nkqubo kwaye izikhundla zethu kufuneka zihambelane,” utshilo.
UJagdeo ubize iNtlanganiso yaBaphathiswa, eye yaxhamla kwinkxaso yorhulumente waseSpain, ukuba ibeke phambili kwiindawo ezihlanu ezibalulekileyo zobuchule kunye nemigaqo-nkqubo, eyona nto yayiyi-Adaptation to Climate Change. Waphinda wancoma indawo ye-inshurensi yeefestile ezininzi, kunye nenkxaso-mali eyaneleyo kunye neqikelelo yokulungelelanisa kwaye waqinisekisa ukuba ezo kufuneka zenziwe zifumaneke kwiiCaribbean ngokukhawuleza.

“Asinakuvumela ukuba kuvunyelwene malunga ne-450 inxalenye yesigidi (ppm) okanye i-2 degrees C. Kufuneka sityhale i-350 ppm okanye i-1.5 degrees C ukuba sifuna ukuqiniseka ukuba siyayikhusela imimandla yethu engaselunxwemeni ekutshatyalalisweni kukunyuka kwamaqondo olwandle.”
Indawo yesine ephambili, ngokutsho kukasihlalo, yayikukwamkelwa koko wakuchaza “njengesisombululo esisehlathini sokunciphisa.” Ubalule iQhinga loPhuhliso lweKhabhoni yaseGuyana ePhantsi – isixhobo esiqhelekileyo sokuNciphisa uMkhuphuzo ophuma kuTyelo lwamahlathi kunye noKuthotywa kweHlathi (REDD) – njengenxalenye ebalulekileyo ekunciphiseni ukukhutshwa kwegesi yegreenhouse kwaye ngolo hlobo, imodeli yamazwe asaphuhlayo.
