11 hours ago
OSAKA (AFP) — World finance chiefs Saturday said urgent action was needed to battle global warming, calling for funds to provide green technology to developing nations to help them reduce emissions.
The G8 meeting gathered the top finance officials from Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the United States.
The finance ministers from the Group of Eight (G8) club of rich nations said they supported multilateral funds proposed by the United States, Japan and Britain aimed at helping emerging countries afford cleaner technology.
"We are convinced that urgent and concerted action is needed and accept our responsibility to show leadership in tackling climate change," the G8 powers said in their joint statement after two days of talks in Osaka, western Japan.
