GENEVA - Hotel managers between the Rhone and the Palais said August had been the lull it is supposed to be, and that September blocks for climate-finance and ordinary UN business were already full. City officials added no extra trams for August. They will in the second week of September.
For residents the lull is the point of staying. For the canton it is a cash-flow dip that the next badge week repairs.
The overlap week
Our later city briefing is 7 September. The loss-and-damage board is here.
