ActionAid is angered at the continuing push to exclude campaigners from the Bella conference centre where UN climate talks are taking place.

Tom Sharman, ActionAid’s climate justice coordinator, who is in the conference centre at Cop15, said:

“With climate talks entering the endgame and rich countries refusing to face up to their historic responsibilities, it’s now even more important that our voice and those from poor nations who we represent are heard.

“Time is running out and rich countries need to pull themselves together and strike a deal that will really tackle climate change.”
