Climate summit in Katowice
The Climate Summit, which lasted from December 2, was to be completed yesterday. After more than two weeks, it turns out that almost 200 representatives of different countries could not reach a common agreement and the deliberations have been extended to this day. Finally, it was only around 22 that the final document was adopted.

“I stand between extinction and the hope that might happen to us here. It's been ten years since I attended the last climate summit. Nothing has changed. We still use the same language, the language of dinosaurs," these words were said by the representative of the Maldives, Mohamed Nasheed. His presence during the summit was quite a surprise for many. Mohamed Nasheed is the first president in the history of the Maldives to be democratically elected. In 2012, he resigned as head of state. This year, Nasheed was elected to represent the Maldives at the climate summit in Katowice.

Conversations going nowhere
“Increase in emissions and increase in carbon dioxide emissions. We just keep talking and talking. There are 196 countries in the UN, 192 of which were able to agree with each other. The remaining four are holding us hostage," Nasheed said. “There have already been too many negotiations while the world is burning. The world will judge all nations on their contributions," added the Marshall Islands Minister of Environment David Pool. Mahomed Nasheed did not spare words during the summit and showed what he really cared about. He informed that he saw what was happening at the current conference. “A conference like the one in Paris will cost us $60-70 million. We do it every year and nothing changes.”

Betrayal of the world
The meeting in Poland is two weeks of deliberations on behalf of the children of tomorrow. The choices made by state representatives bring us a great thrill of doom, but also of hope. The head of the climate commission said: “There is no excuse for large countries doing nothing. If someone does not feel the need to reduce the temperature by 1,5 degrees, it can be safely called a betrayal of the world.

Consequences of 1,5 degree C.
The climate summit is a meeting whose purpose you really need to understand. If the world allows the temperature to rise by 1,5 degrees C then we will lose 70% of the world's coral reefs, and at 2 degrees we will lose all of them. In the north, the ice is already melting, and it can only get worse if the world and the people who make it up do nothing about it.
