He once sat at the same table as the world leaders gathered in Paris to hammer out a U.N. agreement on global warming. Now he stands on the outside. We speak with Pablo Solón, former chief negotiator on climate change for Bolivia, as well as the country’s former ambassador to the United Nations. "The target was: We shouldn’t go beyond an increase of two degrees Celsius," Salon says of negotiators’ failed attempts to limit an increase in global temperatures. "And now to be speaking about four or even five degrees Celsius is, to put it in other terms, to burn the planet."
