Sarkozy: "we've got 24 hours" - - wha? I thought Algore and Hansen said "we've got ten years" ?

Actually that is not exactly what he said and I quote from your source. Sarkozy - "There is less than 24 hours. If we carry on like this, it will be a failure,". It seems that Sarkozy said this because he fears no action will be taken on the climate problem.
