Climate Deal Hopes Dim for Copenhagen Summit

(21 Nov 09 - RV) The UN and Denmark this week said that a binding international treaty to limit greenhouse gas emissions will slip to mid-2010 or beyond, and a summit in Copenhagen next month will fall short of its ambitions. The United Nations' top climate official said a treaty could be wrapped up at talks in Bonn by mid-2010. Denmark, host of next month's meeting, said it might take longer – until Mexico in December. Negotiations on a deal, initially due to be reached at the Dec. 7-18 summit in Copenhagen, have stalled.
