MADRID - Negotiators worked into the early hours of Sunday to try to salvage a strong global commitment to fight climate change after some of the most vulnerable nations said they were being sidelined at a marathon U.N. summit in Madrid.

Kevin Conrad, Papua New Guinea’s climate envoy, told delegates the talks had to be “open and transparent,” echoing concerns expressed by some other developing countries that their voices were not being heard. “We are almost there. It’s hard, it’s difficult, but it’s worth it,” Schmidt told participants, many of whom had barely slept during the gruelling final phase.

Scientists warn the world will only have a chance of avoiding catastrophic warming if countries move fast to slash emissions under the Paris process, which hinges on parties ratcheting up their targets in 2020.

Another thing the trump cult has messed up. Disruption, Distracting, Demanding attention, Changing subject, Annoying, insulting, harassing, and Adding nothing useful to the original topic. Notice that these are the definition of TROLL.

When you see a term such as 'carbon trading' you know it's not about the climate, it's about money. It's complete BS. You don't cut back on greenhouse gasses by trading.

The scam is BUSTED. We don't want your NWO.

Negotiators work through the night to salvage U.N. climate summit.

To what end? A warm inner glow?

Polyester and plastic all over and they pretend to be about lower emissions

China has, right now, 121 gigawatts of coal plants under construction, which is more than is being built in the rest of the world combined. This is simply a power and money grab. If they actually care about the environment they would confront China.
