The Prime Minister also rounded on the flawed and chaotic summit process and demanded that it be overhauled.
And Mr Brown, who is angry at the failure of the talks, warned that never again could a handful of nations hold the rest to ransom.
Mr Brown invested a large amount of time in the process, but yesterday was forced to admit that the results were far from what had been hoped for after years of lobbying. He said the European Union was prepared to go to cut emissions by 30 per cent, but other needed to follow.
He said: What we need is not just one part of the world going to higher ranges of ambitions, we need the other parts of the world as well," Mr Brown said.
If America and China were able to show that they were doing more, and I believe that they could, then all countries - Australia, Brazil, Japan, Korea - all these countries that have got ranges would be prepared to go to their highest level of ambition.

“Americas lack of ambition for the failure of the Copenhagen climate change summit.”
Hehehehehe. Not what Obama and his pals in the press say. I just wish the healthcare bill had failed to pass.
You’re a fool Brown. If you want to commit economic suicide for the sake of junk science don’t expect others to take the plunge with you.
Brown can smooch my bum.
“.. warned that never again could a handful of nations hold the rest to ransom.”
Scary talk right there when you think about it. Majority rule for the new world order? The end to sovreignity?
I guess Britain does not have a meaningful agreement on climate change. A meaningful agreement would do more to cripple their economy.
“A senior Obama administration official says the US, China, India, Brazil and South Africa have reached a “meaningful agreement” on climate change.”

Somebody get him a hanky.
WoHooo!!!! He finally did something right!!!! (unintentionally)
What failure??? NPR told me this morning that the agreement was a personal victory for President Obama...the Messiah.
PS: I added the Messiah part.
What was in it for you, Mr. Brown? Hummmmmmm?
Hey Gordon, "When 0bama fails, Freedom Prevails".
Hey Gordon, "When 0bama fails, Freedom Prevails".
Then that’s a failure I’m very proud of. If it gives you any consolation, sir, you have my permission to go club a baby seal. And eat it.
I wish the United States could take credit for Hopenchangin’s failure - but it sounds like President Present just went along for the ride, and it was China and Russia who did the heavy lifting...
Gord-o is finally sputtering over being dissed...again...quite publicly....by Barry.
Psst Gord-o, Barry is just not that into Great Britain, or you. Chill. Go watch some DVD’s.
It doesn’t matter that it’s all a lie. The only thing that matters is breaking America. I think the rest of the world can just F Off.
