The planned timing schedule has been respected. That's both amazing and most reassuring. Ladies and gentlemen, we respect your efforts. Please carry on your good work! Today, Saturday 5 December, after a week of discussions, negotiators have drawn up a rough copy of the text to be proposed next week as the basis of a future agreement.
Tensions existed between negotiators for a while, but they appear to be easing down.
In the context of COP21, today was labeled Action Day. Why not? Hearing that label, negotiators are less likely to stand still. A French lady, Laurence Tubiana, produced a nice conclusion: "We could have done better; we could have done worse. What's important is that we have a text."
As for the conference president, Laurent Fabius, he gave the impression that he was pleased with events.
And a final happy Action Day speech was delivered by the French president François Hollande.
