South Africa, rising economies, ahead in curbing climate change.

Brazil, South Africa, India, and China, otherwise known as BASIC
countries in climate negotiations, are ahead in combating climate
change. In a meeting held in New Delhi last friday, BASIC countries
maintain that they have done their part in curbing climate change, and
developed countries must do more. Also, the BASIC countries accuse the
developed countries as being illogical for asking developing countries
to slow down on their carbon emissions since this would curtail the
economic growth of their countries.
