Great Barrier Reef should be listed as 'in danger', UN committee recommends
CANBERRA (Reuters) -The Great Barrier Reef should be added to a list of "in danger" World Heritage Sites a UN committee recommended on Tuesday, prompting an angry response from Australia which said it had been blindsided by the move and blamed political interference. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization committee, which sits under UNESCO, said the world's biggest coral reef system should be added to the list due to the impact of climate change. Australia has for years been battling to keep the Great Barrier Reef, a major tourist attraction that supports thousands of jobs, off the "in danger" list.

U.S., S.Korea consider ending controversial North Korea coordinating group
The United States and South Korea have agreed to consider scrapping a working group established to coordinate North Korea policy, Seoul's foreign ministry said on Tuesday, after it became seen as a way for Washington to block inter-Korean projects. During talks between U.S. special representative for North Korea Sung Kim and his South Korean counterpart Noh Kyu-duk on Monday, the two agreed to "look into terminating the working group" while reinforcing coordination at other levels, the ministry said in a statement. On Monday Kim said he was willing to meet with the North Koreans "anywhere, anytime without preconditions" and that he looks forward to a "positive response soon".
