Climate Change Convention

The Eco 92, which culminated in Rio de Janeiro, created a sort of constitution of the new planetary environmental order known as "Agenda XXI", with at least twenty (22) sections, each corresponding to a convention to address environmental problems and energy, which is assumed related to food shortages (remember the "letter of Macchu Pichu 1977). One component of the Agenda XXI is the Climate Change Convention, which attempted to be made operational through the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, which is precisely that should be updated in this region to be held in the Danish Capital. If we remember that preceded by "Perestroika," he concluded abruptly experience what some refer to as the "real socialism", which led to the end of the confrontation as "Cold War", all brought about a realignment of the relationship scheme international, from the strengthening of the so-called Group of 7, and strengthening the United Nations system, launched in 1945, but offset by the development of the Cold War. In the last decade, the Group of 7 (later turned into G-8, and the current path of expansion), became the reference point for dealing with the situations and globalized, with direct impact on the United Nations. These situations included his environmental issues, energy and food. As it could not be otherwise, even in the case of elected governments arising from the mechanisms of representative democracy, other views were emerging, incidentally found, for the approaches taken by the Group of 8 (in the process of enlargement) . It takes as a starting point of the demonstrations in Seattle in 1999, although in the Eco 92, began to realize that in parallel to each summit of government leaders, there was a "counter summit" in parallel.
