Guardian: Its a rare thing when you can point to paragraphs in a United Nations climate negotiating text and feel they more or less match what most of the science says should become a reality. Yet in Lima on Monday, it happened. Our little revolutionary moment comes in a document with the memorable title ADP 2-7 agenda item 3 Elements for a draft negotiating text with its climate-busting section D (paragraph 13.2) outlining several possible long-term goals for a new climate change agreement.

Agence France-Presse: Green groups hoped for a big turnout at a protest in Lima Wednesday aimed at heaping pressure on ministers haggling over a post-2020 deal to curb carbon emissions. The "People's Climate March" in the Peruvian capital follows mobilisation on the eve of the September 23 summit in New York that revived climate change as a political priority.
