The Copenhagen climate summit is in chaos after poor countries walked out of negotiations en masse on Monday morning. The G77, a group which represents 130 developing countries, walked out because it is concerned the existing Kyoto protocol will be abandoned. Australia's Climate Change Minister Penny Wong confirmed that organisers were trying to fix the problem and coax back the developing world. Many countries at the UN climate summit want a brand new treaty to tackle climate change, but the developing world wants the Kyoto protocol to continue as well. The protocol forces rich countries to reduce or limit their greenhouse gas emissions.
