John Kerry said major oil-exporting countries’ willingness to acknowledge that the era of fossil fuels must come to an end underscored the “urgency” of the deal.
It took nearly 30 years for them to even say it, even thou everybody knew it. Talk is cheap, but not that cheap. This is going to be used in many countries to push for faster anti fossil fuel action.
It doesn’t really seem like progress in my mind - fossil fuel producers are just switching strategy from denial to “menthol is better for you than regular cigarettes.” They aren’t cutting production, and the work remains for us to regulate their shitty product.

I certainly hope so.
