UN climate body chief: COP28 draft is 'heavy on posturing'
UN climate body chief Simon Stiell criticized the starting text at the CO negotiations, calling it a 'grab bag of wish lists.' He urged countries to prioritize their highest ambition outcomes to save lives and limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Stiell emphasized the need for COP to deliver a bullet train for climate action, using the available technologies and solutions. Differences have emerged over options like phasing out fossil fuels, with India and other BASIC group members developing a joint position. India previously replaced 'phase out' with 'phase down' for unabated coal power at COP26 in Glasgow.
