Paris monuments including the Eiffel Tower and the Sacre Coeur were lit up in blue and green for the end of the Paris climate summit on Tuesday (December 12).

French President Macron was expected to take in the sights with a boat trip along the River Seine with a group of children after the closing speeches.
