Geneva---Negotiators adopted a climate blueprint in Geneva Friday, a symbolic milestone in the fraught UN process that must culminate in a universal pact in Paris in December.
"Can we take it that the negotiating text you delivered today in Geneva is the negotiating text on which (we) will start substantive negotiations?" the meeting's co-chairman Daniel Reifsnyder asked delegates. "Hearing no objections, it is so decided," he said as the gavel came down and negotiators burst into applause at the end of six days of talks.
