After Typhoon Haiyan's Devastation, Filipino Calls for Climate Action Take On New Urgency

http://www.democracynow.org - Ten days after Typhoon Haiyan struck the Philippines, the United Nations says some four million people have been displaced, up from 900,000 last week. The toll of the dead or missing stands at around 5,000. The massive typhoon has cast a dark cloud over the U.N. climate summit in Poland, with Filipinos and other climate change activists from around the world demanding concrete action on global warming. We're joined by Gerry Arances, national coordinator of the Philippine Movement for Climate Justice.
