COP15 in Pictures - Day One
The Bella Center has a capacity of less than half of the number of people registered and accredited to attend COP15, resulting in access issues. At least in the morning, if you had already picked up your pass, you could enter freely without having to wait in this line, which I was told took some people two hours to get through, but as the conference continues, access for NGOs and journalists alike is likely to become an issue.
By the way, even though I took this at the end of the day -- it gets dark around 4pm at this time of year in Copenhagen -- it's only marginally brighter throughout the day.
