The fight against global warming should not be at the expense of economic growth, the UAE oil chief who will lead this year's UN climate talks said on Monday.

Sultan Al Jaber, the United Arab Emirates' special envoy for climate change and CEO of oil giant ADNOC, said the energy transition needed to make the planet"wealthier and healthier".

But observers were left disappointed that little progress had been made on reducing planet-heating emissions from fossil fuels.
