Ten years of this, and we still get a glossy editorial with a graph and a shrug. I remember the 2015 Paris coverage: same promises, same “historic” language, same pledges that quietly evaporated once the cameras left. Remember the Copenhagen summit in 2009, where everyone hugged and nothing binding came out of it? That one ended in a whimper, and this one looks headed the same way.
