 The G77-China bloc is unhappy about moves made by the Danish hosts |
The president of the UN climate summit has urged delegates to "get to work" after protests from developing nations forced a suspension of several hours.
Talks resumed late on Monday after the president, Danish minister Connie Hedegaard, addressed some of the developing countries' concerns.
Their key demand - separate talks on the Kyoto Protocol - was met.
Some delegates talked forlornly of the vast amount of negotiating left to be done before the summit concludes.
Earlier, the G77-China bloc, speaking for developing countries, said the Danish hosts had violated democratic process.

But Ms Hedegaard, who will take up the new post of EU climate commissioner after this meeting, said she had told developing countries repeatedly that the Kyoto Protocol was not being sidelined.
"They have been assured all the way," she told BBC News.
"Yesterday I met with 48 delegations, the main part of those coming from G77 countries.
"I consulted with them on the way forward today, and I heard no objections. That's why it's a bit surprising that we had to spend almost one day on these procedural issues."
The G77-China bloc negotiates on behalf of 130 countries - ranging from wealthy nations such as Saudi Arabia, to some of the poorest states - in the UN climate negotiations.
