Climate change + aid

• Essentially some progress was made on reducing greehouse gas emissions (even the US agreed), and aid targets were increased along with a scrapping of much of Africa's debts. Not much more could have been expected or hoped for. Most important thing now is that the EU scraps its CAP, which would (especially if reciprocated by the US) save many more lives in Africa than the promised increases in aid.
