US President Joe Biden arrived at UN climate talks in Egypt on Friday armed with major domestic achievements against global warming but under pressure to do more for countries reeling from natural disasters.

Biden will spend only a few hours at COP27 in Sharm el-Sheikh, three days after US midterm elections that have raised questions about what the result could mean for US climate policy.

Global warming"is an urgent crisis", Biden said as he met Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi on the sidelines of COP27, where he said he would address human rights in the country with his host. Calling out the United States as"the historic polluter", Mohamed Adow, founder of the think tank Power Shift Africa, said Washington has been an obstacle to the establishment of a"loss and damage" fund.

White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said Biden will"underscore the need to go further, faster, to help the most vulnerable communities build their resilience" and push major economies to"dramatically" cut emissions. It also aims to step up efforts to cut methane emissions -- a major contributor to global warming -- with a"Super-Emitter Response Programme" that would require companies to act on leaks reported by"credible" third parties.
