Prime minister Gordon Brown today accused climate change sceptics of going “against the grain” of scientific evidence, as he launched a new group to raise billions of pounds for the fight against global warming.<\/p>\n

Mr Brown will co-chair the United Nations High Level Advisory Group on Climate Change Financing with Ethiopian prime minister Meles Zenawi.<\/p>\n

The group aims to raise $30bn (\u00a319bn) over the next three years – rising to $100bn annually by 2020 \u2013 to help poor countries limit their contribution to global warming and adapt to its effects.<\/p>\n

Cash raised from state and private sources will fund measures to halt deforestation, encourage low-carbon development and adapt to rising sea levels, extreme weather events and higher temperatures.<\/p>\n

Despite the failure to reach a legally-binding compact at the Copenhagen talks in December, Mr Brown today said that he believed sufficient offers were on the table to meet some of the conference’s key goals.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
