  • Descrição: US president Barack Obama met his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, in Beijing this week, and climate change was expected to be high on the agenda. Jointly, their countries are responsible for 36 per cent of global carbon emissions, and are seen as the main drivers of--and obstacles to tackling--climate change. The conversation was scheduled for Wednesday, at the close of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation conference, just weeks before the next round of UN climate talks kick off in Peru's capital, Lima. The talks in Lima are the final preparation for the 2015 climate summit in Paris, at which nations are expected to agree on a new legally binding treaty to regulate carbon emissions. The US and China still haven't made any pledges on cutting carbon emissions under the UN process, but their cooperation with each other is seen as inspiring other nations.
