Climate deal is 'in the balance' http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1252443760
Prospects for reaching a new global deal on climate change are "in the balance", according to UK Foreign Secretary David Miliband.
There is a "real chance" that December's UN summit in Copenhagen will not reach agreement, he said.
Mr Miliband was briefing reporters prior to a whirlwind tour of European capitals aimed at stepping up EU diplomacy on the Copenhagen process.... Developing countries say that as the industrialised west grew rich through intensive fossil fuel use, emitting carbon dioxide in the process, western countries bear historical responsibility for climate change and must take the lead in cutting emissions.
So far, the scale of cuts pledged by western leaders has not met the expectations of the developing world.
