The UN yesterday hailed “concrete progress” at week-long climate talks in Bangkok, but environmental campaigners warned much faster action was needed to combat global warming. The informal negotiations aimed to prepare for a November 26-December 7 ministerial meeting under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Doha - a stepping stone towards a worldwide emissions pact.
