Excerpt from the article:

"The need for a more effective body to coordinate economic, social and environmental policy, replacing the ECOSOC or being a reformed version of it, was cited, with several alternatives mentioned including an Economic, Social and Environmental "Security" Council or Global Council, an executive body of the ECOSOC or utilizing the General Committee of the General Assembly.
