We’ll know the answer to that question later today. As I’ve said, though, we’re going to have REDD, certainly, and a fast start to funding for adaptation and mitigation for the developing nations. What else remains to be seen. See the “NY Times” this morning for a report that notes: “But the maneuvering and brinksmanship that have characterized the final week of the talks are also a sign of their seriousness; never before have global leaders come so close to a meaningful agreement to reduce the greenhouse gases linked to warming the planet.”
President Obama, whom many see as the key to finalizing an agreement today, said here “The time for talk is over.” More specifically, what happens between the US and China is critical. Obama met privately with Wen Jiabao, the Chinese Premier, for an hour early this afternoon in Copenhagen. According to the White House, the two “made progress.”
