Developing world concerned over climate fund

Kenyan talks stall over how to manage aid for coping with change.

Delegates at the United Nations climate talks in Nairobi are arguing over how to manage a fund meant to help developing countries cope with climate change.

The European Union (EU), Canada and Japan are pitted against developing nations concerned that countries that have not signed the Kyoto Protocol, such as the United States, will have a say in how the fund is managed, and that the money will come with too many strings attached.
