Asia’s growing coal use could negate global climate change…
Asian countries must set more ambitious goals to contribute to global efforts to curb climate change, said Ovais Sarmad, the deputy executive secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
“There are certain countries in this region still relying heavily on coal and fossil fuels as sources of energy, and in some areas that is growing,” he told Reuters in an interview.
“That’s a very, very serious problem because … all those gains that had been made in other parts of the world would be completely negated.”
