Nadrev Saño, head of the Philippines delegation, whose country had witnessed successive climate change-driven ‘natural’ disasters in 2012 and 2013, called the UNFCCC process an ‘annual carbon-intensive gathering of useless frequent flyers’. He was announcing his protest fast for the duration of the 2013 Warsaw COP. Later, several hundred NGO representatives staged a walkout in order to register their frustration with its lack of progress (ENB, 2013 p. 30). Such views of the UNFCCC regime are widely shared. Over the years it has become complex and highly institutionalised — even, perhaps, a site of ritualised behaviour.
