CANCUN, Mexico, Dec 11 (Reuters) - U.N. climate talks gave formal backing on Saturday to a plan for more talks on the U.N.'s Kyoto Protocol to help unlock a package of measures to fight global warming.
Mexican Foreign Minister Patricia Espinosa banged down her gavel on the deal despite objections by Bolivia which said that the text demanded too little of developed nations in cutting greenhouse gases under Kyoto.
The decision was set to unlock a new U.N. deal, due to be approved in coming minutes, to set up a "Green Climate Fund," protect tropical forests and share new clean energy technologies. (Editing by Eric Beech) (For Reuters latest environment blogs, click on: http://blogs.reuters.com/environment/ )
