The International Association of Public Transport (UITP) took part in the UN climate change conference (COP17) in Durban, South Africa (28 November – 9 December 2011). Although the science of global warming is clear and the role that sustainable low-carbon transport can play in addressing climate change is well known, little progress appears to have been made in terms of achieving a binding agreement in the UN climate talks.
