Governments must do more to fight global warming, spurred by
a new U.N. scientific report and damage to nature that is already

Ki-moon said on Saturday.
"This report will be formally presented to the (U.N. Climate
Change) Conference in Bali," Ban told delegates from more
than 130 nations in Valencia and praised them for agreeing an

change deal that all nations can embrace," he said.

Ban singled out the United States and China, the world's top
two emitters of greenhouse gases, which have no binding goals
for curbs, as key countries in the process. He welcomed initiatives
by both and urged them to do more.
"I look forward to seeing the U.S. and China playing a more
constructive role starting from the Bali conference," Ban
told a news conference. "Both countries can lead in their
own way."
