According to Climate State Secretary Jennifer Morgan in today’s interview with Bernhard Pötter, the „showdown between the fossil fuel industry and the planet“ is intensifying at COP28. While the question of fossil fuel phase-out was negotiated behind closed doors last year, this time, it takes center stage at the climate conference. Morgan asserts that blockers like Saudi Arabia and Russia must realize that their stance „means the end of island nations“. The State Secretary laments that some countries are not negotiating constructively.
