Wasn't that Copenhagen?

Started in Copenhagen in '09, but sorta rolled into the Paris "agreement":

"The outcome of Paris is relevant to the modus operandi of the GCF as it reiterates the key role the fund is to have in a post-2020 framework, highlighting the fund as a key provider of predictable financial resources. The Paris Agreement and the accompanying Decision provide additional provisions on finance that are relevant to the GCF, including on funding ambitions, its contributors, earmarking of funds and its subsequent accounting and reporting."

I assume the GCF will continue in spite of Paris being on the ropes...but they are way short in their funding goals.
