Until December 12, leftists worldwide will meet in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, for COP28, the 28th annual meeting of the “Conference of Parties” of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
Initially, the conference attracted only 5,000 attendees; however, 70,000 will attend this event. Ironically, many attendees will be flying into Dubai on their private jets. According to the Institute for Policy Studies, private jets emit ten times “more pollutants than commercial planes per passenger.”
One presenter who could not attend in person was Pope Francis due to “inflammation of the lungs.” His speech was given by his representative, Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin. Once again, the Pope lamented the evils of nationalism and capitalism and stressed that the road forward needed to be one of “multilateralism.” He declared that he could hear “the cry of the earth” for a “decisive acceleration of ecological transition” and “the elimination of fossil fuels.”
With all the problems in the Catholic Church, it is sad that the Pope is such a leftwing ideologue, focused on a political agenda of open borders, socialism, and climate change. Instead, the Pope should be focused on saving the souls of the faithful, growing Church attendance and donations for worldwide missions, dealing with the damaging pedophilia scandal, and recruiting devout people to join the clergy and laity to ensure the future survival of the Catholic Church.
Another famous leftist who presented in Dubai was the king of climate alarmism, King Charles III. He arrived at “Green Davos” in a private jet. The King preached about “transformational action” and “warned…we’re seeing alarming tipping points being reached.” The King claimed that “the Earth does not belong to us; we belong to the Earth.”
It is disgusting to hear such demands from the wealthy and privileged King, who enjoys a huge staff of sycophants, a massive fleet of cars and aircraft and a personal train at his disposal. Most workers around the world are struggling during these tough economic times. To reach the King’s unrealistic “net zero” goal, which is the complete negation of greenhouse gases produced by human beings, the additional costs placed on average citizens worldwide will be significant.
The dream for King Charles and his fellow “climate change” fanatics is for meat to be removed from our diets, nitrogen fertilizer to be drastically reduced, and methane emissions from cows to be significantly curtailed. Such changes to our agriculture and diet will lead to “worldwide famine,” but the “climate change” zealots believe it is necessary to combat the dangers of taking no action.
One of the theoretical pieces of evidence of “climate change” is the increase of extreme “weather emergencies.” However, a study by four Italian scientists shows that the number of cyclones and hurricanes occurring worldwide has not increased in the last fifty years.
The “climate change” devotees also claim that wildfires are occurring in greater numbers due to this supposed crisis. Yet, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reported that wildfires mostly occur due to human activities such as arson and improper land management. In addition, science researcher Roger Pielke, Jr. discovered that global wildfires have decreased in the last twenty years.
The “doom and gloom” reports from “climate change” alarmists are not sufficient to support the change in lifestyles that they want to enforce on humanity. Not only will economic activity be curtailed, but trillions of dollars in wealth will be transferred from the middle class to the elitists.
No wonder there is no mass popular movement for these changes. In the last annual Gallup survey of Americans, “climate change” did not list the top 14 problems facing Americans. Instead of worrying about something that may or may not be man-made or impact them in the decades to come, the poll indicates Americans are more concerned about the problems we face today: dissatisfaction with government, high inflation, the poor economy, and the massive increase in illegal immigration.
Regardless of Americans’ true concerns, the Biden administration is investing heavily in the “green agenda.” The U.S. Special Envoy for Climate, John Kerry, promised that the United States will “stop building new unabated coal power plants.” President Joe Biden has already committed to replacing all coal plants in the country with “wind and solar.” A study by the Institute for Energy Economics and Finance Analysis estimated that 173 coal plants would close by 2030.
While the United States moves away from coal toward more expensive energy sources, China is massively increasing its “coal power capacity,” permitting 106 gigawatts in 2022, a 400% increase from the previous year. Instead of attempting to rein in China, delegates at the Dubai conference were circulating a petition demanding the United States and other Western nations end the construction of new natural gas infrastructure projects. Those who signed the anti-natural gas petition must have overlooked that natural gas is very efficient, producing only 117 pounds of “heat-trapping carbon dioxide per million BTUs of energy produced,” much less than gasoline or coal.
For the “climate change” radicals, the facts do not matter; they are obsessed with eliminating fossil fuels. Not surprisingly, the Biden administration is fully supportive of this effort. At COP28, Vice President Kamala Harris announced that the United States will contribute $3 billion to the U.N.’s Green Climate Fund, supporting poor countries’ transition from fossil fuels.
Fortunately, not all world leaders subscribe to this radical agenda. Former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott blasted the “green cult” and said these climate goals are “ahistorical and utterly implausible.” Abbott noted, “10,000 years ago, we had an Ice Age, that was rather dramatic climate change, but presumably that had nothing to do with mankind’s carbon dioxide emissions.” Well said, Prime Minister.
Nothing promotes revolution faster than starvation, which is what the Left and it’s climate change hoax appear to be doing through the various UN agencies.
Can’t wait. Got food storage and ammo. Let’s go.
You will walk to the store to purchase your families government rationed supply of bugs to eat. AND BE HAPPY.
This really is turning into a movie.
What will come after no cars or cows? It has to be something, Im thinking they will then say that human feet emit too much carbon, and the poor must all have at least one amputated to save the planet.
And dont worry, it is only bad optics and an inconvenient coincidence that a cripple cant fight back.
NOW, hop your dumb ass down to the store and purchase your ration of bugs.
You better hope John Kerry doesnt read this.
The Left’s Agenda should be clear to everyone who’s been paying attention:
Surveil us intrusively so they know what we’re thinking, saying, and buying, and everywhere we go and how we get there;
Disarm us by nullifying the 2A under the Trojan Horse of “sensible gun control” so we can’t resist–or even protect our own families and homes from murderous attack;
Impoverish us, and reduce us to the status of mendicant peons dependent, hat in hand, on our “betters”–i.e. Government–for everything.
Frightening, most people I meet pay more attention to, and are much more worked up by, how their team does in the World Series or the Superbowl…as the incumbents they always re-elect are busy enriching themselves and stripping us of our privacy, or liberty, our way of life, and our standard of living.
The Pope was totally demolished in Australian Professor Ian Plimer’s sensational book ,
‘Heaven & Hell – The Pope condemns the poor to eternal poverty’.
Plimer is the best and most strident defender out there regarding the nut zero Malthusian climate emergency clap trap.
As for old horsehead Kerry What a bloody embarrassment to mankind. Dumbarse extroadinaire . And that’s saying something against a line up that includes Kamal Harris !!
”He declared that he could hear “the cry of the earth”
No dear Papa, that was the cry of the freshly buggered 5 year old boy, hiding in you closet.
So just when will Washington D.C.(District of Criminals) and the Useless Nations(UN)all going Wind or Solar and ride in EV, like they would force us to do and when are they all going plant based Junk?
Remember…the greens/leftists, etc. believe that the ideal earth’s population is 1 billion people. Got to get there somehow and these greens/leftists want to see this happen in their lifetime.
Call them Watermelons Green on the Outside Red on the Inside
The bloated and uber rich Algore is bloviating about the climate. A quick check of his predictions of doom and gloom shows he was WRONG on each and every one he talked about in his fraud crockumentary, “An Inconvenient Truth.” The Globaloney movement is a death cult, pushing de-population of the World. No power, no food should do it, if we allow these lunatic Luddites have their way.
How often does it have to be repeated before the “useful idiots wake up to the reality that all of the apocalyptic climate change rhetoric has NEVER been about “saving the planet? In reality, it’s ALL about the Benjamins…how they will be redistributed and to whom.
What irony, a meeting in a nation that made its vast wealth off oil of the ME.
These scammers with big egos are unaware of everything around them.
If the lefties were really interested in cutting back on CO2 emissions, they would park their private jets and travel by sailing ships.
If they were serious about Climate Change Gore and DiCaprio would live in Grass or Mud Huts and walk to their little pow-wows and Obama wouldn’t be living so close to the Beach
The Signs message is totally false it read INVESTING IN AMERICA and Bidens Investing in China
