The World as its stands in early 2009

Summing up the current World situation is rather confronting - environmental degradation/climate change; financial markets across all major economies contracting; serious conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan; continuing instability in the Middle East; failed states in North Eastern Africa and the Pacific Rim and a plethora of related problems of similar magnitude.


The question remains whether the political leadership of major states together with the key business and economic leadership figures are able to add to make further progress with these problems this year; or whether there will continue to be considerable rhetoric but not equally matched by concerted equal action.
