In the early hours of December 11th, after three days and nights of exhausting, often ill-tempered final negotiations, the United Nations' two-week-long climate-change summit in Durban ended with an agreement. Its terms--even assuming they are acted upon--are unlikely to prevent a global temperature rise of more than 2[degrees]C, which is the stated aim of the whole UN climate process. Indeed, they might easily allow a 4[degrees]C rise. Yet with many governments distracted by pressing economic worries, the deal was as much as could have been expected; perhaps a little more.
