This year’s United Nations climate summit is the first to which oil and gas companies were invited to participate in the official program of events, essentially turning it into “a fossil fuel industry trade show.”

for a UN Accountability Framework to “end corporate capture”; throw “big polluters” out of the climate talks; require delegates publicly to disclose their interests; ban partnership or sponsorship of talks by the polluters; and ease restrictions on civil society access.

There is a movement on the streets [about climate change], but it has not been translated into political power. The problem is the power of governments, and their alliance with fossil fuel companies. Until we break open that relationship, there will not be a transition away from fossil fuels.So are the climate talks part of the problem, or part of the solution? It is not only activists who are asking.
