"Rich Nations Are Not Willing to Pay": U.N. Climate Talks Falter over Disaster Funding
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Germany, climate experts say the high-level U.N. talks in Bonn have
failed to make any progress on a global response to the climate
catastrophe. This is Tasneem Essop of Climate Action Network
International.

Tasneem Essop: "The climate talks in Bonn this year ended up with no
results. And this is caused by a breakdown in the negotiations once
again on finance. Rich nations, as they've done before, are not willing
to make progress on their financial obligations to developing
countries."
