Article: Figueres: First time the world economy is transformed intentionally

The Top UN Climate Change Official is optimistic that a new international treaty will be adopted at Paris Climate Change conference at the end of the year. However the official, Christiana Figueres, the Executive Secretary of UNFCCC,  warns that the fight against climate change is a process and that the necessary transformation of the world economy will not be decided at one conference or in one agreement. 
"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 [ed; since the fall of the USSR, and actually Venezuela is failing at it now] in human history", Ms Figueres stated at a press conference in Brussels. 
"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 at least 150 years, since the industrial revolution. That will not happen overnight and it will not happen at a single conference on climate change, be it COP 15, 21, 40 - you choose the number. It just does not occur like that. It is a process, because of the depth of the transformation."
This is not from a right wing site. This is not from some obscure periodical. It is front-paged and in-the-title at a UN website.

This Marxist/socialist/progressivist claptrap has failed, repeatedly, over the last 230 years (I am using the French Revolution as a starting point).
