UNITED NATIONS (AN) — Some 40% of the United Nations' 193 member nations committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, and nearly the same amount vowed to take greater action to fight global warming by 2020.
The commitments to achieve 'net zero' carbon emissions came from 77 nations, while the pledge to do more to fight global warming came from 70 nations. Along with those promises, 130 banks representing a third of the global banking sector and 100 business leaders pledged to run greener operations by shifting to renewable energy and curbing fossil fuel-burning linked to climate change.
