Africa’s 54 Nations Team Up to Climate-Diplomacy Level: One Alliance, Big Hopes

Present a unified front at the global meeting later this year, which we’re generously guessing means—with fingers crossed—that everyone will agree on something for once. The 54 countries have shopping lists of environmental goals presumably involving more than just saying 'global warming bad,' aiming to flex diplomatic muscles and maybe show the world that the real climate summit MVPs are Africans. Stay tuned as negotiators try to turn ‘‘bold vision’’ into actual policies before conference snacks run out.
