Abstract
In the commentary, these main points were presented: 1. The crucial condition for a positive outcome of the Copenhagen conference lies not only in achieving a harmonized approach of EU and USA (an absolutely essential condition), but also in actively engaging developing countries. 2.
The condition for this engagement lies in the finances, which have to be provided particularly on adaptation measures. 3. The climate policy of the CR is on a low level for various reasons, especially due to fall of the government and a series of other political crises.
