Africans boycott meetings at UN climate talks

Published: 11.03.09, 21:37 / Israel News

African countries ended a boycott of meetings at UN climate negotiations on Tuesday, after winning promises for more in-depth talks on how much rich nations need to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

 

Due to the Africans' demands, most of the rest of this week's talks in Barcelona will be devoted to discussing carbon-cutting pledges rather than other issues including carbon offsets and action by developing countries, said John Ash, chairman of the negotiations on emissions. (AP)
