United Nations negotiators expressed disbelief, then anger Sunday as the COP25 climate talks in Madrid, Spain, looked set to end with no agreement on anything of substance.
The only unanimous decision reached by the 25,000 delegates was the backing for another identical conference in 12 months’ time to revisit the agenda in a program that first started in 1991.
Negotiators from the Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS) pointed the finger of blame at Australia and the United States as well as Brazil and Japan for resisting the call for financial reparations to be sent to “victims” of climate change as well as other major industrial nations which see no reason to support U.N. global climate tax demands.
The U.S., in particular, was blamed for refusing to agree to developing countries’ demands for money under what is known in U.N. jargon as the Warsaw International Mechanism (WIM). It did point out no country in the world gives more to humanitarian causes than it does.
A US state department official said:
The U.S. government is the largest humanitarian donor in the world. The WIM should be a constructive space to catalyse action on the wide range of loss and damage issues. A divisive conversation on blame and liability helps no one.
The annual climate marathon had been due to conclude on Friday but has dragged on with ministers mired in multiple disputes over implementing the 2015 Paris deal.
U.N. chief Antonio Guterres [pictured above] exhorted major world economies on Wednesday to signal more ambitious commitments to cut greenhouse emissions and obey the globalist call for change.
“We need to have the big emitters understanding that their role is essential because if the big emitters fail, everything will fail,” Guterres told Reuters in an interview.
“If we just go on as we are, we are doomed.”
Guterres urged major emitters to send a clear signal they are ready to increase their ambition next year and “hopefully” commit to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 — seen as vital to keeping global temperatures within manageable levels.
“History cannot accept that my generation will betray our children and grandchildren,” said Guterres, a former Portuguese prime minister, who has made climate a signature issue since taking over as U.N. secretary-general in early 2017.
The next U.N. climate summit is set down for December 2020 in Glasgow, Scotland.

“…looked set to end with no agreement on anything of substance” This calls for a celebration. The best thing we can do about “climate change” is… absolutely nothing. Although it sure looks like the extremely moderate warming trend since the little ice age is slowing, we should be glad it hasn’t actually stopped or reversed yet. A warmer climate is good for civilization, as human history has proved over and over again.
Julio Cordero ….. well said .
No progress will get made when the premise is built on
unscientific lies .
Humans will NEVER control the earths climate .
“tackle climate change ” Really ? What a joke .
‘ If we go on as we are, we are doomed ‘ Their words are getting smaller, more in line with their chances.
The United Nations Conference on Climate Change has always been based on false assumptions about the climate. It is necessary to put a stop to pretensions fruit of fanatic positions, not at all scientific. Focusing every time in a useless discussion that focuses on repeating all the curses against CO2 and the human activities that generate it, the only thing that can lead is for humanity to suddenly see itself without the necessary preparation to respond adequately to climate change We must take CO2 from the center of the discussion, and focus on the issues of adaptation and mitigation, and learn from past experiences of humanity related to climate. As long as the CO2 defendants continue to sit on the bench, the decisions adopted at the United Nations Conferences on Climate Change, concerning climate, will be absurd and foolish.
We don’t need any stupid carbon tax we don’t need anymore stupid taxes on everything from Big Macs to SUV’s over this fake crisis Global Warming/Climate Change
