Leaders announce new Asia-Europe climate goals

Asian and European Union leaders on Saturday committed their 43 nations to agreeing to new goals on climate change by the end of next year. The 16 Asian and 27 EU leaders issued a joint statement saying they planned to finalize a post-Kyoto Protocol deal on climate change goals to 2012 at talks in Copenhagen scheduled for December 2009. New targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions would build on the December 2007 climate change conference in Bali, Indonesia, they said, calling on developed nations to show "strong leadership".
