    COPENHAGEN -- The U.S., Britain, France, Australia, Japan and Norway pledged $3.5 billion Wednesday toward slowing, halting and reversing deforestation in developing countries if there's a broader agreement at the United Nations climate talks here.

    The funding would go toward rewarding countries that protect their forests or plant trees.
