This video is actually from COP19 in Warsaw two years ago – but the observation that fossil fuel corporations, and other big corporations, are sponsoring the conference is just as true today as then.
It is fossil fuel consumption that creates the conditions of climate change. It is cessation of fossil fuel consumption that is the solution. Therefore, having fossil fuel corporations sponsor a climate change conference is like asking liquor companies to sponsor an alcoholism conference.
