Compromise

EU strikes deal on climate targets after marathon talks - but it's 'not necessarily pretty'

Defending the deal, one EU diplomat said it had to acknowledge that we live in “muddy, messy, nasty real world”.

Minister for Climate Darragh O'Brien has welcomed the agreement, saying Ireland pushed for changes in areas like agriculture.

But the deal has been criticised by climate activists, who say Europe has made too many concessions to countries unwilling to take necessary action.
