As I write this article, the crescendo of the 26 United Nations Climate Change Conference, also known as COP26, seems to be tapering off. As always, hopes were raised, expectations realigned, and commitments revisited. But like previous years, my fear is, once the daily grind sets in, our sense of urgency will fade away. We will get back to our own bubbles and bury our heads in the sand.

Paris (AFP) - Across a quarter century of UN climate conferences tasked with saving humanity from itself, one was deemed a chaotic failure (Copenhagen/2009), another a stunning success (Paris/2015), and the rest landed somewhere in between. This year's COP26 inspired all these reactions at once. Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, leading a 100,000-strong march through the streets of Glasgow, dismissed the two-week meet as a "greenwashing festival". But dedicated experts in the negotiating arena hailed solid -- even historic -- advances in beating back the existential threat of global warming. Mo...

Speaking at a forum in Singapore, the former secretary of state emphasised cooperation -- even as the rivals spar over other flashpoint issues such as Taiwan.

The S&P 500 is now up 20 of the last 24 days. This is despite the highest inflation report in 30 years, surging pandemic numbers in Europe, continued logistics bottlenecks, fears of defaults in China’s property developers, and cracks appearing in the US Treasury market as the Fed begins to taper its QE.

Glasgow (AFP) - Nearly 200 nations came together Saturday on a global deal to combat climate change after two weeks of painful negotiation, but fell short of what science says is needed to contain dangerous temperature rises. Rich countries stood accused of failing at the COP26 summit in Glasgow to deliver much-needed finance to vulnerable states at risk of drought, rising seas, fire and storms. Britain's COP26 president Alok Sharma rounded up the marathon negotiations telling delegates: "It is now decision time. And the choices you are set to make are vitally important." But China and India i...
