From Template:Wikinews/doc#Location: "This template is normally placed at the top of the WP:External links section. If the news story primarily relates to one part of the article, it may be placed at the top of the appropriate section."
The World Bank signed an agreement [June 1st] ... to work on technical and financial assistance for projects to minimize the effects of climate change. ... announced at the C40 large cities climate meeting here, will ease access to financing for climate-change-reduction projects. It was hailed by many of the mayors, including Michael R. Bloomberg of New York City, and by former President Bill Clinton, who attended the event as part of a new partnership with Mr. Bloomberg.
The agreement will make it easier for investors who have been hesitant to finance projects to assess city action plans by providing a standard approach, said Robert B. Zoellick, the World Bank’s president. It will also provide a common way to measure and report on the greenhouse gas emissions of cities, easing access to carbon financing, he said. No single standard exists for reporting citywide carbon emissions.
“What is holding back the sustainable clean technology revolution for a lot of mayors and businesses and households in a lot of countries is the lack of green financing,” said Sam Adams, the mayor of Portland, Ore. “The partnership with the World Bank begins to address that.”
The C40 commissioned a pair of studies that provide, for the first time, a statistical baseline of greenhouse gas emissions produced by the 58 cities that are members of the organization, as well as a catalog of actions they are taking to reduce them. As Mr. Bloomberg, the chairman of C40, said, repeating a mantra from his business career, “If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.” The C40 member cities have a total population of more than 300 million and produce 12 percent of global greenhouse gases and 21 percent of global economic activity. Of the 42 cities that participated in the research, more than half have adopted emissions-reduction targets, and nearly two-thirds have taken steps to address climate change.
Per WP:TALK, it is quite proper to delete comments not related to improving the article. If they make no sense whatsover, they probably aren't related to improving the article. — Arthur Rubin(talk)05:42, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"Makes no sense whatsover" is accurate. As you admit you're not fluent in English, perhaps you can post your ideas in your own language, and we can see if someone can translate it into English. — Arthur Rubin(talk)20:48, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I can name three other editors who have specifically commented that your posts are disruptive. Can you name one who has specifically commented that your posts are not disruptive? — Arthur Rubin(talk)05:46, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
So, while trying to research c40, I came across this, and I cant say I'm impressed. the intro itself seems to be right from their marketing manual, and while I am not in a position to do so - I feel it is important that this entire page is re-done in a neutral manner.

very subjective. statements made as facts not proven
This article makes many statements that are not accompanied by evidence. The article is highly opiniated and presents far too many "facts" that are no more than the opinion of the authors. The article needs major revisions to make it reflect reality rather than the fantasy world of the authors 192.0.238.35 (talk) 14:03, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
