The 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference has been underway in
Glasgow since Sunday. So far, we’ve seen a series of new pledges to
reduce deforestation and methane emissions and notable new financial
commitments to try to achieve net-zero emissions goals. But how
impactful are those moves? Reporting from the conference, POLITICO’s
Zack Colman explains what’s being promised in public, but what’s really
being said and done privately.
