On September 2007, while president Nicolas Sarkozy was making his first speech at the 62nd   session of the UN General Assembly, French minister of foreign affairs, Mr. Bernard Kouchner, invited some civil society participants to discuss the proposal of a United Nations Environment Organization as the panacea for our planet. However, if we were to look only at the framework of international governance while trying to arrive at a conclusion about the problems of the global environment, it would appear that the world is on the right track. There are more than 500 treaties and international agreements of that nature. Since the Rio-92 conference, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of conventions (including Global Warming, Biological Diversity, desertification, the Kyoto protocol, and the additional protocol of Cartagena, the PIC and the POC conventions). Yet, most of these conventions are not supervised by the United Nations Environmental Program; they created their own geographically separate secretariats, each with its own budget, agenda, and strategies. The outcome, of course, is an extremely fragmented governance of the global environment, with a weak UNEP, serious coordination problems, and a lack of credible scientific expertise on a global level.
