Pacific nations voice their frustration with world's lack of progress on climate change

Pacific Island leaders have expressed their anger and frustration at the UN Climate Summit in Egypt, saying they've become props in environmental campaigns and richer nations don't care about their communities. With global temperatures forecast to keep rising, the island nation of Tuvalu says it has no choice but to build a digital version of itself to preserve its culture amid rising sea levels.
