In a move the Obama Administration has already given initial support to, the United Nations is moving forward with the Copenhagen Accord meant to combat global warming. Though the plan won’t be signed until December of this year, negotiating sessions will start on Sunday in Bonn, Germany. While the idea behind it might be commendable, opponents are calling the plan dangerous as it stands now. Claiming that it would involve a reordering of the global economy, critics such as Fox News executive editor, George Russell, point out that it would probably involve “trillions of dollars in wealth transfer, millions of job losses and gains, new taxes, industrial relocations, new tariffs and subsidies, and complicated payments for greenhouse gas abatement schemes and carbon taxes - all under the supervision of the world body.”
