British Energy Minister Malcolm Wicks told Reuters on Friday: "That's not the overall approach that Britain favors."

He said governments needed to be accountable for hitting targets and that this would be difficult under a sectoral approach.

G20 nations ranging from top carbon emitters the United States and China, to big developing economies Brazil, Indonesia and South Africa took part in the weekend meeting.
