Conferences of promisers are a dime a dozen, as they say in the U.S., and conferences of empty pledges, such as Hillary Clinton's, as unveiled at Bonn by her own colleagues on June 7 ("there will not be $100-billion a year in the GCF"), have one main purpose: to deflect the world's justified anger at how Northern pollution threatens us all.
Izingqungquthela zabathembisi ziningi kakhulu, njengoba besho eMelika, izingqungqthela ezinganalutho, njengokwenza kukaClinton's, njengoba kwacaca eBonn ngozakwabo ngo June 7 ("ngeke kube khona u$100 billion ngonyaka eGCF"), bonke banenjongo eyodwa: ukubohlisa ulaka lomhlaba ekutheni isimo sezulu liyinkinga kuthina sonke.
