Brief:
Dealing with climate change seems to pose an invidious trade off between the future of the environment and jobs and profits today. Energy security and climate change are quintessential global issues, but global action has proved very difficult. Competition for energy has become an important theme not only for global economics but also for politics and security as well. How will the parties deal with these issues at the Copenhagen Conference?
