With less than a third of the world leaders committed to attending the Copenhagen climate summit I wonder what kind of impact could this have on the rest of the world? Do you think they will make any headway? If you could speak for your country, what would you tell the rest of the world? I would really like to hear what you have to say!

Most of these leaders believe if they take proactive steps in line with the UN new climate goal of cutting down greenhouse gases within their border, they are going to hurt domestic economy, and national interest; until they begin to think global and look at the whole picture of world instead of a country in their map, the interest of every nation is interconnected, any consensus and compromise among nations is an essential element to achieve UN's climate goal especially among the big polluters. the leaders must think outside their little box in order to have a positive impact in this fight against drastic climate change that had been going on for decade.

What needs to be done will affect global economies negatively. However, it has to be done! Thank for your well thought out response!

it obvius that most of world leader do not really care about climate changes. Still we can hope for the best solution since the carbon trade proposal issues still in question. Some of my fellow Indonesians already try to propose the proposal. maybe the world leader that not attend the Copenhagen climate Summit need to watch 2012 for some insight.
