Abstract
"The climate talks this week in Copenhagen ended in failure. Governments of the world showed themselves incapable or unwilling to make the changes necessary to find a just solution to the current climate chaos. The talks have been driven by self interest and trade 'solutions' that have so far proven useless. Josie Riffaud, one of the leaders of the farmers movement Via Campesina said: "Money and market solutions will not resolve the current crisis. We need a radical change in the way we produce and we consume and this is what was not discussed in Copenhagen".
