JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) -A G20 draft leaders' declaration includes references to "climate change" in defiance of U.S. objections, a source familiar with the matter said on Friday.

The draft declaration was agreed ahead of this weekend's summit in Johannesburg without U.S. input.

U.S. President Donald Trump recently called climate change a "con job", and has not sent a delegation to the COP30 climate summit in Brazil.
