U.S. promises "ambitious actions" in UN climate deal


    OSLO (Reuters) - The United States promised on Tuesday to take "ambitious actions" to fight global warming as part of a new U.N. climate deal and urged a dramatic increase in aid to help developing nations.

    A submission to the United Nations outlining Washington's ideas for a treaty due to be agreed in Copenhagen in December also said that many nations should lay out greenhouse gas targets until 2050 as well as mid-term 2020 goals.

    "The United States is committed to reaching a strong international agreement in Copenhagen based on both the robust targets and ambitious actions that will be embodied in U.S. domestic law," it said.
