The United Nation’s top climate change official says the world will be in deep trouble if a Bali meeting next month on reducing global emissions fails.
Yvo de Boer, stressed that the international community is fighting against time in a bid to stem global warming.
He says a new treaty to reduce emissions would need to be completed by 2009 or 2010 at the very latest, so that all signatories can ratify it in time.
The meeting in Bali, gathering members of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change will develop a path for negotiating pollution cuts to be implemented after 2012 when the Kyoto Protocol pledges run out.
