Will world leaders achieve a deal at the UN talks in Copenhagen in December? If they do, will it work? They are trying to tackle climate change with as little upset as possible to the global economic system, even though it is driving the crisis. This ‘business as usual’ approach to climate change won’t work. We need radical change which puts people and their environment before profit. We need practical solutions, now, to protect employment and save the world.
