But there is something surreal about this argument. Faced with the looming spectre of climate change, the trade negotiations in Geneva amount to little more than arguing over the arrangement of deck chairs while the Titanic is sinking. Indeed, one of the most important steps in the struggle to come up with a viable strategy to deal with climate change would be to derail the Doha Round.engWith permission of the license/copyright holderecologyliberalismclimate changeclimate ethicsCapitalismtradePolitical ethicsEconomic ethicsEnvironmental ethicsTrade ethicsArticle
