UN climate chief says more needs to be done to counter global warming.

'My feeling is that we will probably need to do more than most people are talking about' to combat climate change, Rajendra Pachauri, chairman of the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), told Reuters.
