UN Climate Change Report Approved by Nations.

Governments have approved a major new UN report on climate change, which was delayed by a battle between rich and developing countries over emissions targets and financial aid to vulnerable nations. The report by hundreds of the world’s top scientists was supposed to be approved on Friday, but the closing gavel was repeatedly pushed back as officials from big nations haggled over the wording of key phrases in the text. The report caps a series that digests vast amounts of research on global warming compiled since the Paris climate accord was agreed in 2015.
