Elmau Castle, Germany--G7 leaders said at a summit Monday that deep cuts in global greenhouse gas emissions are required with a "decarbonisation of the global economy" over the course of this century.

Ahead of a UN climate summit in Paris late this year, the Group of Seven big industrialised nations called for global emissions cuts of 40-70 percent by the middle of the century compared to 2010 levels.
