China has again called for developed nations to take more responsibility at the Climate Conference.

Vice Foreign Minister He Yafei, who is in Copenhagen, said it's key to achieving the remarkable results necessary to stop global warming.

He Yafei, Vice Foreign Minister, China, said, "This is an issue of historical responsibility for developed countries, it is not the developing countries. We are earnestly requesting them to do something. The greenhouse gas emission from developed countries accounts for over 80 percent of the total amount,and they cannot just leave it. Another point is the developed countries cannot sacrifice the benefits of developing countries to propel the success of this climate conference."
