Philippines delegates urge action at Doha climate talks as Typhoon Bopha death toll rises

As the death toll in the Philippines from Typhoon Bopha rises above 500 with tens of thousands homeless, the UN climate conference in Doha is drawing to a close.  After two weeks of talks, wealthy nations have refused to sign up to significant pollution cuts. In his closing speech yesterday, the head of the Philippine delegation, Nadarev Sano, called on world leaders to “open their eyes to the stark reality.” Nadarev Sano spoke to us on a mobile phone in Doha.
