Nations ranked on global warming
U.S. IS FOURTH WORST IN WORKING TO SLOW CLIMATE CHANGE

Sweden, Britain and Denmark are doing the most to protect against climate change, but their efforts are not nearly enough, according to a report released Monday by environmental groups.

The United States -- the world's biggest emitter of greenhouse gases -- ranked at 53, with only China, Malaysia and Saudi Arabia doing worse.

``We don't have any winners. We only have countries that are better compared to others,'' said Matthias Duwe of the Climate Action Network-Europe, which released the data at the U.N. climate conference. ``We don't have big shining stars.''
