• Panel: 2009 is the year for a global agreement on climate change
• US economic stimulus plan includes spending on green projects

The call for urgency comes as world leaders prepare to meet at the United Nations Climate Change Conference Copenhagen at the end of this year to set a global framework for tackling global warming and climate change.
”What we most need out of Copenhagen is a clear, shared vision of where the world is going in the future,” Gore said. “The assumption that we can continue on this path is the assumption that we are collapsing.”
