Who's leading this discussion? And does the cost cover the discussion or dinner?

Most likely by the sorts of people who would have eagerly chopped down the last tree on Rapa Nui.

Looks like most people think things work out better with a plan. Sam Brownback has a plan.

This is also called agenda 21 which is a UN sponsored program that attacks personal property. Go ahead and Google Agenda 21 and read on. Overland Park, Ks was a sponsor community that has since pulled out. Due to weather the meeting has been moved to Monday, March 11th. Democrats have also become very concerned about the direction this is headed.

Most democrats actually believe in critical thinking unlike most republicans who blindly believe what Fox News tells them...

"Most democrats actually believe in critical thinking"
Not by a longshot.

There's a direct link between the anti-Agenda 21 tea partiers and the John Birch Society. They've started a "DemocratsagainstAgenda21" website that is also of the same ilk, certainly not representative of anybody but the aforementioned tea partiers and those rabid anti-communist holdovers from the McCarthy/John Birch days. Nothing new to see here, folks, keep moving along....think impurifying our precious bodily fluids.

The anti agenda 21 folks are victims of the Dunning - Kruger Effect...

This is all I need to know about Agenda 21.
From Wiki:
The United States is a signatory country to Agenda 21, but because Agenda 21 is not a treaty, the Senate was unable to hold a formal debate or vote on it, nor was it ratified by the Executive branch of the United States. Several congressmen and senators, however, have spoken in Congress in support of Agenda 21; these include Representative Nancy Pelosi, Senator John Kerry, and Senator Harry Reid.
Plese accept my regrets (not really). I will not be in attendance.

I hope Dillon's has some extra-heavy tin foil for the Tea-pubs, AFP-types, and Koch acolytes who are putting this on.

Wow, really? They've reached a new low then. Was Jim Mullins their featured speaker?

I'm just happy that the sponsor clearly doesn't plan for the future. Good.
