Not much, really. Just a whole lot of waste and false hopes with massive government intervention to create a wind\/solar\/battery bubble. The subtitle of the CLIMATEWire piece said much: \u201cThe blockbuster climate deal made history a decade ago. But its record at taming climate change is spotty. \u201c<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some quotations<\/a> (realism be served) follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

But if the agreement identified the dangers, it has not resulted in lasting action to solve them \u2014 at least, not yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet the COP30 climate talks last month showed that a fractured and divided world is unable to find consensus on phasing out fossil fuels \u2014 the main source of rising temperatures \u2014 a decade after nations signed an agreement to do just that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026 carbon pollution from fossil fuels reached a record 38.1 billion tonnes this year\u2026. While many countries are cutting pollution from their energy systems, it\u2019s not enough to offset rapid growth in global energy demand, the analysis found\u2026..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026 the ambitious 1.5-degree goal is gone, said Pierre Friedlingstein, a climate researcher at the University of Exeter\u2026. \u201cThe issue is it\u2019s been 10 years after Paris and we\u2019re still showing slow progress.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before COP30 convened last month in Brazil, more than 100 countries had missed multiple deadlines to submit their latest plans to cut emissions. More nations submitted them over the course of the conference, but many weren\u2019t aligned with the Paris temperature targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the gap between what [developing] countries need and receive is wide\u2026. Getting the finance flowing where it\u2019s needed is a major challenge.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The article contains a lot of overoptimism and false hope. The anti-CO2 proponents have to do that, particularly at this precarious time. But there are cracks in the narrative, as the above quotations show.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
