That the G20 summit failed to direct enough attention to important climate change challenges is noticeable. Although other important issues were given attention, I am glad to see that organizations like ONE International acknowledges this.
For instance, in today’s post on the ONE blog, Virginia Simmons acknowledges that:
“The G20 failed to call for resources to help the poorest countries adapt to the harmful impacts of climate change, and tackle its causes. It was disappointing that there was no mention of the urgency of addressing these needs.”
Indeed, it appears like the Swedish Minister for European Affairs, Cecilia Malmström, is right when stating that there is still “a long road to Copenhagen”. This is also discussed by Michael A. Levi in the latest edition of Foreign Affairs. A very interesting article..
