| Abstract: | The overarching issue as the world enters the 21st century is how to develop in a sustainable fashion. In this regard, there are two key challenges: providing energy for sustainable development; and establishing global governance structures that will support sustainable development. With respect to the energy challenge, a first step is to ensure that energy is used more efficiently so that demand in developed countries can be reduced. Moreover, businesses should set greenhouse gas emission, reduction targets. A further step needs to be the creation of a cap and trade system for greenhouse gas emissions. Businesses, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and government must work in partnership to achieve these goals. |
