| The picture taken on December 15, 2007 shows the UN General-Secretary Ban Ki-moon addresses the Climate Change Conference in Bali Island, Indonesia. The 15-day conference ended Saturday with the adoption of a Bali roadmap, which is expected to launch negotiations on a crucial international climate change regime up to 2009. The Bali Roadmap, agreed by over 180 countries meeting in Indonesia's resort island of Bali, includes a clear agenda for the key issues to be negotiated up to 2009, for instance, action for adapting to the negative consequences of climate change, ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, ways to deploy climate-friendly technologies and financing both adaptation and mitigation measures. The next year's climate change conference will be held in Poznan, Poland. (Xinhua) |
