    Excerpt
    The Philippines is calling for a renewed fight against the growing threat of climate change, saying this could derail the implementation of new development goals set by the United Nations.

Neda Director General and Economic Planning Secretary Arsenio M. Balisacan, who attended the 70th UN General Assembly at the UN Headquarters in New York last month, told the meeting's closing session that "if we are to achieve our development goals, we need to take urgent action to combat climate change.
