The G20 is a consortium of finance ministers and economists from the largest economic powers in the world, representing 85% of the global gross national product.

In 2009 G20 Summits were held in London, England and Pittsburgh, USA. The core focus of these G20 summits was the global economic crisis, with some discussion on environmental issues, like global warming.

We have set up a SCAN to monitor what is happening on the ground in Pittsburgh, September 24-25, 2009.
