And then this:
At the end of the Glasgow climate summit, summit chairman Alok Sharma broke up after a disappointing closing statement from the top. Although the 200 delegations have agreed on measures to limit global warming, a last-minute discussion has ignited, mainly with China and India.
Both countries were not happy with parts of the text and wanted an amendment to the part dealing with fossil fuel subsidies and stopping the use of coal. In the text, the original wording, “towards phase-out”, was changed at the last minute to “towards phase-out”, or “reduce” instead of “eventually, stop” the use of coal.
For other countries, mainly the European Union and small island states, it was a huge disappointment. Nonetheless, all delegations ultimately accepted the final declaration.
