In Paris several ministers and negotiators have indicated they will formally adopted the final draft of a climate deal. It was the result of weeks of negotiations. The draft text was given out earlier in UN official languages. Among the final key points that the officials have resolved is a five-year cycle for reviewing national pledges to take action on greenhouse gas emissions. And it stresses the need to rein in temperature increases to less than 2 degrees. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius earlier on Saturday announced that the draft was done - hours after the Friday deadline.
