Global climate summits have rarely produced tangible results. More than anything, they have proven to be nothing less than platforms for verbose empty promises and extensive lobbying for the fossil fuel industry. COP28, currently underway in Dubai, may very well end up as the greatest flop so far in global climate diplomacy.
COP28 President and United Arab Emirates climate chief Sultan Al Jaber said there is 'no science' behind demands for phasing out fossil fuels; in addition, he expressed doubts that there is a road map for the phase out of fossil fuels that would allow sustainable development, 'unless [we] want to take the world back into caves.' Isn't this already sufficient evidence that COP28 will be yet another global climate summit flop?
