Paris talksA draft climate agreement unveiled from U.N.-backed talks in Paris kicks many of the critical issues down the road, environmental activists said.

A 27-page draft text, as it stands, lays out an agenda to keep warming trends below a threshold considered acceptable to island and coastal nations. The draft does little, however, to address secondary concerns like migration.

Lucy Cadena, a campaigner with Friends of the Earth, said the draft agreement pushes many of the necessary actions down the road.

"Shockingly, the text could allow for carbon emissions to continue until 2099," she said in a statement.

Campaigners said they're frustrated with technological fixes like carbon capture and storage or economic measures like carbon-swap markets.
