Czech PM will travel to UN-climate change conference held in Copenhagen

At a lower house session on Monday, Prime Minister Jan Fischer confirmed he will be traveling to the UN-climate change summit in Copenhagen. President Václav Klaus, a known opponent of the global warming theory, will not be attending the conference. A Danish translation of his book on the issue has been available in bookstores in Denmark since last week. The conference is meant to generate a new document that will replace the Kyoto protocol and help reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Delegations from 192 countries have been invited to the summit that started on Monday and will end on December 18.
