| BRUSSELS, March 9 — The European Union approved a compromise agreement on Friday that would make Europe the world’s leader in the fight against climate change but would also allow some of Europe’s most polluting countries to limit their environmental goals. Issuing a challenge to the United States, China and India to match European ambitions in the battle against global warming, Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany called on the world to follow the European Union’s commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20 percent from 1990 levels by the year 2020. She said the bloc’s 27 members would commit to a 30 percent reduction if other nations followed suit. |
