As the United Nations (UN) meets for the first time to pick up the pieces after the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD), Friends of the Earth International has accused governments of betraying people and the planet in Johannesburg. Friends of the Earth International has called on governments to abandon the neoliberal trade agenda which dominated negotiations in Johannesburg and instead to develop and implement global rules for big business as promised. Friends of the Earth International is calling for a commitment to deliver on this promise.
