French president meets African leaders at Paris climate talksFrench president meets African leaders at Paris climate talks

French President Francois Hollande held talks with African leaders in Paris on Tuesday.

CCTV’s Kate Parkinson reports from Paris.

 

One of the biggest debates during the climate conference is how much aid should rich countries give poor ones to help them cope with climate change and reduce their emissions.

A substantial part of that planned aid would most likely go to African countries for investment in renewable energy, and to increase access to electricity.
