UN meeting OKs climate deal over Bolivia protest

CANCUN: A U.N. conference has approved a two-part climate deal that creates a Green Climate Fund and takes other small steps to deal with global warming.

Mexican Foreign Secretary Patricia Espinosa, the conference president, gaveled the decisions early Saturday over the objections of Bolivia, which said the deal didn't go far enough in curbing climate change.

Decisions at the U.N. climate talks are typically taken by consensus, but Espinosa says consensus doesn't ``mean that one country has the right to veto'' decisions supported by everyone else.
