On to more pressing needs like sustainable development. Agenda 21 push will now be on full throttle it appears.
Why are these lunatics even there? Now they're talking about changing their peacekeeping helmets to green to be peacekeepers for crisis that might arise due to global warming.
"Because the circumstances have changed, the nature of his engagement is changing," Orr said. "The relative balance of his time is shifting towards getting it done on the ground out there."
UN officials, and those who closely track climate change negotiations, insist that Ban has not lessened his commitment to finding a solution to climate change. Ban has called global warming "the greatest collective challenge we face as a human family".

Global warming, whether happening or not, human made or not, is either going to happen or not, and there is nothing you, me, or any other human can do about it. Besides possibly a scientist coming up with a perpetual motion machine or a solar panel that is 50% efficient.
