The problem with climate change is that it doesn’t slow down and wait for you to catch up. We can’t afford delays; we’ve already delayed far too long. Yet our leaders are doing it again. They are staring at the ticker on the bomb and saying, “Screw it, let’s just come back later.” This is very frustrating.
Leaders Agree to Delay a Deal on Climate Change
Elene Cooper, The New York Times: “President Obama and other world leaders have decided to put off the difficult task of reaching a climate change agreement at a global climate conference scheduled for next month, agreeing instead to make it the mission of the Copenhagen conference to reach a less specific ‘politically binding’ agreement that would punt the most difficult issues into the future.”
