UN Set to Launch 'New Universal Agenda' for Global Governance

The United Nations is set to launch its "new universal agenda" for humanity and the planet September 25, 2015. The UN's "2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development" document is a blueprint to "transform our world for the better by 2030," and yet most major media outlets in the United States refuse to report on the far reaching implications of this document. "This is probably the most difficult task we have ever given ourselves, which is to intentionally transform the economic development model, for the first time in human history. This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time, to change the economic development model that has been reigning for ... 150 years, since the industrial revolution."--Christiana Figueres, Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change
