While there has been widespread grief about the stalled UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) process following COP15 at Copenhagen, there were some areas of positive progress. One of the most notable was in the development of agreements on reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD). REDD was excluded from the Kyoto Protocol because at the time the policy and methodological issues were considered too difficult to resolve.
