    Can the slogan of think globally and act locally provide feasible solution? Perhaps time has come to rise above national boundaries and act globally to deliver climate good? Has climate change pushed the world to the edge so that it is time for us to think of minimum work agenda which rises above national boundaries and becomes global good to be delivered globally? Can global governance in climate mitigation generate global commitment for poverty reduction given that national priorities and circumstances are different and for large number countries reason for non cooperation for commitment to low carbon pathway is poverty burden and need for rapid development and income generation at the least possible cost .
