U.N. Chief urged to act on climate change 1/17/07

The main point:

A U.N. official said on Tuesday he urged U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to take a leading role in helping world governments battle global warming after 2014, when the Kyoto treaty on climate change expires.

Yvo de Boer, head of the U.N. Climate Secretariat (UNFCCC) in Bonn, Germany, said he told Ban during a meeting on Monday at U.N. headquarters that he should organize a meeting of heads of government to chart the next global steps against warming.

My thoughts:

With carefull planning and execution, anything is possible. I do believe we have the power to eventually correct and atleast temporarily slow down this problem.

What do you think?
