Environmentalists and developing nations voiced concern on 08 December over a Danish draft proposal which calls on developing nations to step up their efforts in the fight against climate change. The text, circulated among a restricted group of delegations attending UN climate change talks in Copenhagen and leaked to the Guardian newspaper, states that all parties should "support the goal of a reduction of global annual emissions in 2050 by at least 50 per cent versus 1990 annual emissions." More controversially, the text envisages a deadline for peak emissions from developing nations. Photograph: Jens Norgaard Larsen/guardian.co.uk
