World Business: In the lead-up to COP 15, the all-important United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, World Business will not only introduce you to the people who are witnessing the impact of climate change first-hand, but also to the companies that have pledged and implemented carbon cutting initiatives. Our first report begins in Australia where scientists are seeing coral reefs die out as a result of global warming.

I love how this clip shows African kids, when if Copenhagen had gone through, biofuels replacing crops would've driven food prices up to such an extent that millions of Africans would've starved to death... how caring of you... lol.

"We need to get some broad based support, to capture the public's imagination...

So we have to offer up scary scenarios,

make simplified, dramatic statements

and make little mention of any doubts...

Each of us has to decide what the right balance is between being effective and being honest."

- Prof. Stephen Schneider,

Stanford Professor of Climatology,

lead author of many IPCC reports
