Nov. 29 (Bloomberg) -- Pledges by industrial nations to
curtail greenhouse gas emissions won't be sufficient to limit
global warming, the United Nation's lead diplomat on the issue
said.
"Even if all the national targets and actions now on the
table were enacted in full, they will not lead to the goal of
limiting warming to 2 degrees Celsius," Christiana Figueres,
the UN envoy leading global warming talks, said today at a press
conference in Cancun, Mexico.
