"...The European Union climate negotiator in Durban, Artur Runge-Metzger, said the United States needs to do more to address climate change.
Artur Runge-Metzger: "I think what we expect from the United States is that they stick very clearly to their pledge they have been making in Cancún, and that they show very clearly that they are going to implement what they have promised in their domestic actions.
