Neutral Evaluation. An institution can arrange for a neutral party, or the parties can find and agree on a neutral party, who will listen to each side, and then give a non-binding opinion about an issue of fact, and issue of law, or perhaps a technical issue. The neutral party typically assesses the strengths and weaknesses of the case, which may help parties be more realistic about their claims in subsequent settlement discussions. 2, record 2, English, - neutral%20evaluation

RMU : Removal Unit. The Marrakesh Accords introduced the RMU as part of a Party's assigned amount generated from domestic sinks activities within Annex 1. Under the [Kyoto] Protocol, accounting for carbon sequestration activities is handled on the assigned amount side of the ledger rather than the inventory side. For example, if a Party has a net sink of 30 MT [metric ton], then it "issues" 30 MT of RMUs rather than subtracting 30 MT from its inventory of total emissions. 3, record 17, English, - removal%20unit
