For the first time, countries at talks to tackle climate change have agreed a global deal to transition from fossil fuels.
So what? Agreed in the hottest year on record, the Cop28 pact is a signal to business and society that this is the beginning of the end for oil, gas and coal.
The agreement doesn’t include a call for the “phaseout” of fossil fuels, which European countries and many of those nations most at risk from climate change wanted. That was stymied after a pushback from oil-producing countries.
But the diplomatic-speak has been hardened up.
