2011 COP17 succumbs to Climate Apartheid! - Climate Justice Now!
According to Pablo Solón, former lead negotiator for the Plurinational State of Bolivia, “It is false to say that a second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol has been adopted in Durban. The actual decision has merely been postponed to the next COP, with no commitments for emission reductions from rich countries. This means that the Kyoto Protocol will be on life support until it is replaced by a new agreement that will be even weaker.”
After the feast of words in Durban, comes the reckoning: the deal ensures beyond doubt that our children will be worse off than we have been.

" the deal ensures beyond doubt that our children will be worse off than we have been."
I wonder if "our children" means our children of the developed countries or ALL the children of the world in which case, this statement would be (to me) true.
