COP15-DENMARK-UN-CLIMATE-WARMING
FOR AFP STORY BY COPENHAGEN OFFICE
Participants of the UN Climate Change Conference (UNCCC) Shorbanu Khetun (L) of Bangladesh and Constance Okollet (R) of Uganda touch the three-meter-high ice sculpture at the Bella center in Copenhagen on December 11, 2009 after the huge statues displaying Maasai warriors were carved by Danish sculptors. The Maasai tribes of East-Africa are being hit hard by a changing climate. The UN climate talks got down to the nitty-gritty, seeking compromises on carbon emissions and funds for poor countries that could unlock a historic deal between world leaders. Hopes of a breakthrough at the 12-day summit in Copenhagen were boosted late on December 7 after the US government announced it would start to regulate carbon dioxide as a dangerous pollutant.
