Most professional environmentalists (broadly speaking: ecologists, economists etc) I know believe we are not able to bring these problems under control or that the UN is able to do any good. As an example, the UN climate conference has failed to address reducing fossil fuel production across 27 annual meetings. At some point the UN will need to ask itself if it is part of the cure, or part of the disease.
