UN climate summit leaves huge carbon footprint

These are the folks shaping your future ;)

Quote:

To hear world leaders and others addressing the United Nations Summit on Climate Change, the threat could not be more real and the need more urgent to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases.

But in stark contrast to the earnest statements is the carbon footprint associated with their gathering.

Does it undermine the goal of the climate change summit and cause the pledges of environmental concern to ring hollow?

No.
What makes it hollow is the inactiviy that goes along with all those solemn pledges. Travelling politicians are nothing new.
