PM says ‘not much difference’ between ‘phasing down’ and ‘phasing out’ of the fossil fuel
Boris Johnson has admitted it was disappointing that China and India watered down the Cop26 climate agreement, but claimed there was actually little difference between “phasing out” and “phasing down” coal usage.
The prime minister declared the summit in Glasgow a historic success, rating it “more than 6/10”, but acknowledged his “delight at this progress is tinged with disappointment”.
