Contentious issues seem to be on the rise, both inside and outside the Bella Center where negotiations entered the fourth day in Copenhagen for an international agreement to tackle climate change.
The venue has seen quite a few protests. Wali Haider from Pakistan marched with a group of people from South and Southeast Asia to the entrance of the conference venue shouting, "Climate Justice".
He said: People from Southern countries demand a solution that, first of all, protects the poor people impacted by climate change, not to satisfy the greed of the Northern countries, which have contributed the most to greenhouse gas emissions.
