UN-ENVIRONMENT-KENYA
Izabella Teixeira, Brazil's Environment Minister, addresses a press conference February 22, 2012 at the UNEP headquarters in the Kenyan capita, Nairobi. The upgrade of the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) is emerging as a hot issue in preparations for June's Rio conference, styled as a once-in-a-generation chance to restore a sick planet to good health. The US is fighting a proposal, backed according to France by least 100 countries, to transform UNEP from a poorly noticed, second-string unit into a planetary super-agency. Environmentalists have long complained that Nairobi-based UNEP, set up in 1972 as an office of the UN and with a membership of only 58 nations, lacks clout to deal with the globe's worsening ills.
