Durban Climate Summit

India has managed to secure a big moral victory at the Climate Summit in Durban. It has been successful in getting the word "equity" entered into the draft of the working group, which means it will be included in the agenda of all future talks.

The UN climate change conference opened in South Africa on Monday amid serious differences between developed and developing countries over a second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol that has dampened hopes for reaching binding agreements during arduous 12-day parleys.
