New York: US President Barack Obama has said that the security and stability of each country is at stake due to climate change.

The US President acknowledged that America needs to do more to reduce carbon emissions, but said climate would top US agenda with countries like India and China.

Addressing the UN Summit on Climate Change, Obama said that countries need to develop economies without harming the planet.

"Developing nations must be on path of sustainable growth. We can help developing nations with clean tech knowledge," said Obama.

He said that it is still possible to reverse the climate change, adding that US cannot alone do it.

"US has done more in the last 8 months than ever before. US cannot meet the climate change challenge alone," he said.
