In consultation with the Host Country and responding to numerous queries from participants, the Climate
Change secretariat would like to propose that the dress code for participants at the upcoming conference be
adapted to take into account the tropical weather in Ghana.
Mr. Yvo de Boer, Executive Secretary, has exempted secretariat staff from wearing jackets and ties after
the opening ceremony. The secretariat invites participants to follow suit. The secretariat hopes that
amending the dress code will allow participants to conduct discussions in a more comfortable environment,
as well as limit the use of air conditioning and thereby reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
