	COP6 Suspended - Status of Negotiations Unclear - Sustainable Development, Ecosystems and Climate Change Committee ...
		The decision to suspend COP6 was contained in a document (FCCC/CP/2000/L.3) entitled "Conclusion of the Session," which was adopted after several amendments.
		Apparently, results were potentially close at hand for some issues, but in the end, the gulf was too wide and economic interests too important for the Ministers to conclude even a partial deal with details postponed to COP7.
		While there was some progress on implementation details at the 13th session of the FCCC subsidiary bodies (SB-13), Part II (which occurred during the first week in The Hague), the package of rules and guidelines also remains substantially incomplete because of a lack of agreement on the political issues by the Ministers.

	The Earth in Balance: Briefing Notes for the November 2000 Climate Summit - West Coast Environmental Law
		The Kyoto Protocol applies to six greenhouse gases: the three main greenhouse gases released by human activity (carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane) and one gas and two families of gases that are released in small quantities but are both long lasting and extremely powerful (hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons and sulphur hexafluoride).
		CoP6 was set as the deadline for making decisions on the mechanisms (CDM, trading and joint implementation), treatment of sinks under Articles 3.3 and 3.4, and assisting developing country Parties with adaptation to climate change (Articles 4.8 and 4.9 of the FCCC).
		Subsequently CoP6 was identified as a deadline for decisions on compliance mechanisms.

	COP6 Climate Change Negotiations Letter - NIRS

		For that reason, we are hopeful that the COP6 negotiations will produce implementation mechanisms for the Kyoto Protocol that are strong and will effectively reduce greenhouse gas emissions worldwide.
		However, we also believe that it would make no sense to trade one environmental disaster for another.
