International climate negotiators may have informal talks toward an end-of-year global climate agreement on the sidelines of the upcoming United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York, a French diplomat said June 17. "We are considering meeting in New York in September during the UN General Assembly, so that heads of state and governments can give clear political direction" in support of completing the climate deal in Paris, Gerard Araud, France's ambassador to the U.S., said at an Atlantic Council forum on climate change and national security issues.
