Snippet:

"From both ends of the debate, there was a surprising level of agreement about this yesterday. Bjorn Lomborg, the Danish academic who believes in climate change, but not in the methods to tackle it that the conference discussed, said: "Trying to force drastic carbon emissions cuts in the short term doesn't work economically or politically. We should have the courage to admit that this is the wrong road – and it's time to adopt a new strategy."

Mr Sauven, the Greenpeace director, said that "it is now evident that global warming will require a radically different model of politics than the one on display here in Copenhagen."

Comment:

Democracy is the form of government that most of the western world follows.

The U.N. is by no means, a democratic organization and the talks in Copenhagen are not taking place democratically.

Yes, we elected the leaders and the individual governments to run our countries based on laws we perceived as being just, but we did not give them authority to take us into unproven territory.

Suggest, any change from the way each country is governed, needs to be approved by the people affected, before any of these leaders is given the authority to negotiate on our behalf.

Good Luck to all!
