Thailand is implementing measures to help curb the problem of global warming.

The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment says the move, recommended by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), includes continued public
campaigns for greater use of alternative bio-energy and energy saving.

The UN panel held a meeting in Bangkok from 30 April - 4 May 2007, in which more than 400 world experts from over 130 countries and environmental agencies took part.

The meeting resolved that a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 85 per cent a year in coming decades would be needed to ease global warming.

The meeting also noted that developed nations accounted for 46 per cent of the greenhouse gas emissions.
