All eyes will now be on Al Jaber over the coming days to see if he can fulfil his pledge that an “unprecedented outcome” to keep alive hopes of limiting global temperature rises to 1.5C, is within reach.

From what I’ve read recently, it seems the only way that’s in reach now is by fiddling the numbers.
