Copenhagen: Day 5

Europe comes up with a funding scheme, George Soros offers his own plan, and talks of a legally binding deal are back on the table.

It’s all about money as Day 5 of the international climate talks wraps up in Copenhagen.

The Climate Action Network, a global group of about 500 non-governmental organizations promoting worldwide action to limit climate change, offers a video overview of the day’s events through interviews with officials from Greenpeace, CAFOD and Christian Aid.
