More from Paris Published on December 10, 2015

Another story on the ground from PDF’s, Lori Goodman, who has been attending the COP21 conference:

“Today was my last day at the conference. I took a lot of video covering women organizers from around the world. It was great to see them step up and confront some of the snake oil salesmen telling us how to ‘fix’ climate change: ‘We need to save Mother Earth and this is the way you need to do it.’

“Of course, it reminds me of how our Navajo Nation council delegates go to Las Vegas conferences and are sold the latest schemes that will save the Navajos.

Meanwhile, the brown people never uttered a word.”

Negotiators adopted a draft climate agreement Saturday that was cluttered with brackets and competing options, leaving ministers with the job of untangling key sticking points in what is envisioned to become a lasting, universal pact to fight global warming.
