Brazil, China, Australia, Saudi Arabia, and the United States resist pressure at COP25 to ramp up efforts to combat the climate crisis, delegates say, prompting criticism from smaller countries and environmental activists

Carolina Schmidt, UN Climate Change Conference President, attends a plenary session during the ongoing climate negotiations, which have reached a deadlock, in Madrid, Spain December 15, 2019.

It had been due to finish at the two-week mark on Friday but has run on for two extra days - a long delay even by the standards of often torturous climate summits.

"COP25 demonstrated the collective ambition fatigue of the world's largest emitters," said Greenpeace East Asia policy advisor Li Shuo.
