COP Out?

UN COP16 starts this week in Cali (Colombia). One must ask, what they hope to achieve? It's already clearly evident to scientists that human activity has pushed the current world into the danger zone. COP16 will focus on the major biodiversity losses that are making the Earth less conducive to human life. We already know this. Significant damage is 'locked in' and it's inevitable that we will see more (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/oct/21/humanity-earth-natural-limits-biodiversity-warning-cop16-conference-scientists-academics). Sadly, however, COPs tend to be 'talking shops'. They don't educate the uneducated. It's difficult to see countries and megacompanies changing their behaviours! We basically are a species, apparently intent on producing planetary changes, that will inevitably make it less 'human friendly'. It's not the world in the 'danger zone' (the planet and life will persist), it's the human species?
