Noteworthy positive points include the agreement to accelerate the fight against climate change, the review of trade barriers related to climate change, and tripling funding for developing countries to cope with extreme weather events.
On the negative side, the lack of agreement on the phase-out of fossil fuels undoubtedly stands out. Among other things, it shows the limits of the EU's leadership in the fight against climate change.
Two conclusions can be drawn at this point:
- As usual, the results are less than expected, but progress is still being made, albeit slowly.
- The fight against climate change continues to advance even without the US.
