Meager Results from Climate Talks
 (ANSA) - Rome, December 18 - The United Nations climate change summit in Copenhagen is a ''mountain giving birth to a mouse,'' a Catholic Church emissary to the UN said Friday. Predicting meagre results from the summit as it wound down on Friday, Msgr. Celestino Migliore said deadlock at the conference illustrated that ''massive international meetings have outworn their usefulness as a format for addressing the world's problems''. The Vatican nuncio to the UN, Migliore said the summit was hamstrung from the outset by disagreement over ''what is causing climate change and how to stop it''. ''Without consensus for the diagnosis, it's going to be hard to agree on a cure,'' he said. Posted by: GirlThursday 2009-12-21 |
