Neither greens nor fossil-fuel addicts are happy with it, and there could be better ways of forcing the US to reduce its emissions. So should we just scrap the Waxman-Markey climate bill?

With just three negotiating weeks left before the critical UN climate talks in Copenhagen in December, we take a behind-the-headlines look at the current status of the talks. What does the majority poor world think would constitute fairness in the global deal?
Taking a break from his travels in southern China, Ewan surveys the wealth of campaigns and activist websites dedicated to showing that we care about the upcoming climate change negotiations
Morocco's dilemma is to be particularly vulnerable to climate change, but still desperately courting the type of development that will make it harder to adapt to rising sea levels
Another negotiating week on the road to Copenhagen has come and gone. We try and tell you as much as we can in plain English about where the talks currently stand, now that there are just 100 days left to go to Copenhagen. Our focus here is on the overall 'shared vision' element of the agreement
New research has revealed that a lack of finance and political commitment lie at the heart of the slow take-up of renewables, as a UK think tank calls for cash for low-carbon technology to be ringfenced
The global deal on climate change has two main requirements. That it is guided by the latest science and that it is fair. Without fairness there will be no deal, as nearly 200 countries need to agree and most of these countries are poor
Copenhagen is where the future of our planet will be decided. So why is there such little media interest in the run-up to the talks, asks Phil England.
Gordon Brown called for an annual fund of £60 billion to help less industrialised countries adapt to climate change as part of a range of Government proposals in the run-up to UN talks in Copenhagen later this year
