Squabble Over $100 Billion Aid Stalls Global Warming Deal – Bloomberg<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A dispute about how to link greenhouse-gas emissions cuts to a promise from the wealthiest nations for $100 billion a year in climate aid emerged as a major stumbling block at UN talks on global warming.<\/p>\n

After a week of discussions that ended today in Bonn, envoys from some 190 nations were deadlocked about the formula countries will use to set out their commitments on reducing fossil-fuel pollution in time for the deal they plan to sign in Paris in 2015.<\/p>\n

That means higher-level officials will have to deal with the issue when they meet in\u00a0Peru<\/a>\u00a0in December. The exact way in which those pledges are put on the table is the cornerstone of the pact that the\u00a0United Nations<\/a>\u00a0is promoting as a replacement for the\u00a0Kyoto Protocol<\/a>, whose limits on emissions in richer countries lapse in 2020. Delegates also failed to make progress on the actual draft text of a future climate treaty.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe talks here can\u2019t fairly be called negotiations,\u201d Meena Raman, who tracks the UN negotiations for Malaysian nonprofit group Third World Network, said today in an e-mailed statement. \u201cI can\u2019t see how they\u2019ll pull the elements together if they continue like this.\u201d<\/p>\n
