Britain Warns of Climate Catastrophe LONDON (AP) -- The world has less than two months to agree on how to avoid catastrophic global warming whose impact would be felt for generations, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said Monday, a stark warning that puts pressure on the United States to finalize its position before this year's global climate conference in Denmark.Brown told delegates to the Major Economies Forum talks in London that countries need to compromise with one another to reach a deal at December's conference to avoid ''the catastrophe of unchecked climate change.''''There are now fewer than 50 days to set the course of the next few decades,'' Brown said. ''We cannot afford to fail. If we fail now, we will pay a heavy price. ... If we falter, the Earth will itself be at risk.''
