JAKARTA (The Jakarta Post/Asia News Network): Many decades from now when the Earth is so much hotter than today, many people in Indonesia and around the world will look back and wonder why countries failed to stem the use of coal, knowing perfectly well that it would accelerate global warming with dire consequences for the environment.
They will find stories of how world leaders at their meeting in the United Kingdom city of Glasgow in November 2021 discussing climate change only pledged to phase down, instead of to completely phase out, coal.
