The Issue
Energy is the most powerful engine of growth and prosperity throughout the world. The demand for and production of energy is expected to increase dramatically over the coming years in both industrialized and developing countries. At the same time, the climate change threat warrants bold action - and the world must respond with comprehensive, far-reaching solutions. A global climate change strategy is necessary to outline clear steps toward slowing, stopping and reversing the growth of greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere.
