US Balks at Bali Carbon Targets

The UN climate talks seeking a new pact on global warming hit a potential problem today when the US said it was unwilling to approve a draft agreement setting firm targets for cuts to carbon pollution.The US said a proposal for developed nations to reduce emissions by 25-40% by 2020, which is backed by Britain and the EU, was "totally unrealistic" and "unhelpful". Other nations, including Japan, are believed to be against the idea.
