I think everyone on the forums can agree that climate change is a ongoing crisis that needs to be resolved. However the politics of the blame game have left many nations not acting upon this threat.
Can any nation really be at fault in this crisis? Should this even be a political issue? What are your stances?

People would probably yell at him for muting in a biased manner (whether he does or not). Maybe though, the mics could be attached to a two-minute timer, and for the one side's two minutes, the other side goes dead, and both go dead when the two minutes is up? Hmmm...

Personally, I don't think a mute button should be used. Even when they are talking over each other, the words they say are still important and can still be used for or against them.

There's almost certainly going to be some other big event that crops up in like a week or two
