There's just one more day left in COP26.
What's evident now is that Glasgow won't seal the 1.5 deal, but the hope is that it will form a foundation upon which an eventual agreement can be reached.
And that was the gist of Cherisse Halsall's conversation with veteran meteorologist turned Ambassador Carlos Fuller yesterday when he explained how the closing of the COP is tempering his expectations.
Carlos Fuller - Ambassador
"I do think we will see some progress, I don't believe we will see that major change in finance and the region is that all the World leaders 130 of them were here a few weeks ago, I cannot imagine a negotiator will say okay by the way I will go beyond what my Prime Minister of my president said, please if they had anything important to say, they would have said it, they would not have left it for their negotiators, so obviously that I the state of play, but we can begin a process to say maybe whee will be getting at the next major meeting of the major economies and so on next year. COPS re always very small successes each time, you never make a quantum leap to say oh ok the hundred billion dollars is nowhere, no they acknowledge it's not there but we now have a process of getting there and we want to hold their feet to the fire, well tell us how in 2022 you would tell me how you're there, 2023 we are there now so we want to put that into the process."
