“Our leaders are aren’t giving us Hopenhagen - they’re giving us Cokenhagen, a sugary feelgood hit filled with sickly additives and no nutrition. Their behaviour here - where the bare minimum described as safe by scientists isn’t even being considered - indicates they are more scared of the corporate lobbyists that fund their campaigns, or the denialist streak in their own country, than of rising seas and falling civilisations.”

Meanwhile, Johann Hari provides us the useful “Hopenhagen” and “Cokenhagen.” Rather than, say, educating anyone on the means to contact government officials (with apologies to followers outside the US) or begin organizing locally or even to raise awareness.
Thanks for those two words, Johann.
