WASHINGTON, Muharram 28, 1437, November 10, 2015, SPA -- U.S. President Barack Obama will press for an agreement at the Paris climate talks that reflects ambitious climate targets, the White House said Monday. Obama and other world leaders will meet in Paris in December to work on a plan to reduce the effects of climate change. “The United States will be pushing for an agreement that does three things,” White House spokesperson Josh Earnest told reporters. “The first is that we’re looking for an agreement that reflects the ambitious climate targets from all of the countries who are participating.” “Second, we’re looking for an agreement that puts in place a long-term framework that incentivizes countries to ratchet down their emissions over time, in a transparent manner, with high standards of accountability, and with the goal of achieving a low-carbon transformation by the end of the century,” Earnest said. “And third, we’re looking for an agreement that mobilizes on-going financial and technical support for low-carbon development and climate adaptation, especially for the poorest and most vulnerable countries. We know that some of the poorest countries are the ones who are the most vulnerable to the most tangible climate impacts that are already being felt around the globe,” Earnest said. --SPA 11:40 LOCAL TIME 08:40 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
