Tldr: nothing happened

The text highlights the failure of nearly 200 nations to reach an agreement at the COP28 climate summit to reduce global fossil fuel consumption.

There was disagreement among countries regarding transitioning away from fossil fuels, since arabs suck balls, leading to a lack of consensus on clear targets and plans.

Some countries advocated for phasing out specific fossil fuels to curb emissions, but they faced opposition (the fucking arabs).

Ultimately, the summit concluded without a unified strategy to tackle climate change, reflecting a missed opportunity for collective action.

Yeah, Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber would not be smiling this hard in this picture if Cop28 actually did commit to phasing out fossil fuels in any meaningful way.
