COP26: The Final Push For An Elusive Agreement
UK optimism aside, nobody at COP26 thinks an agreement
will be forthcoming for the official deadline tomorrow, not
with-standing the breakthrough agreement between the US and
China.
And now Scoop Editor Alastair Thompson, reporting
from Glasgow, says he has been told staff working on the
entrances to the venue have been asked if they can be
available to stay on the job for an additional two
days.
He believes a massive gap between the financing
needs of the developing world and the capacity of the
developed world to address even a small fraction of that
need, may even deliver the first ever COP that fails to
agree on a text.
Alastair has been filing daily video
update conversations on his time in Glasgow via you-tube.
And you can catch up on these at the links
below.
