World leaders meeting in Cornwall are to adopt strict measures on coal-fired power stations as part of the battle against climate change. The G7 group will promise to move away from coal plants unless they have the technology to capture carbon emissions. He said G7 leaders faced the most important decisions in human history. The G7 will end the funding of new coal generation in developing countries and offer up to £2bn ($2.8bn) to stop using the fuel. Climate change has been one of the key themes at the three-day summit in Carbis Bay, Cornwall.
