UN climate conference COP25 – some progress, some disappointments

UN climate conference COP 25 ended in Madrid during the weekend. UN Secretary-General António Guterres tweeted (1):

“I am disappointed with the results of #COP25.

The international community lost an important opportunity to show increased ambition on mitigation, adaptation & finance to tackle the climate crisis.

But we must not give up, and I will not give up.”
