Good news! Our ‘climate change’ betters are gathering in Poland for the latest Conference On The Parties, looking to make you do the very things they themselves won’t
Climate change: Urgency the main theme as COP24 opens
The most critical meeting on climate change since the 2015 Paris agreement has opened in Katowice, Poland.
The COP24 conference started a day early due to the pressures on negotiators to make progress.
Ex-chairmen of the talks have warned the world “is at a crossroads” and “decisive action in the next two years will be crucial”. (snip)
But a recent study showed that CO2 emissions are on the rise again after stalling for four years.
In an unprecedented move, four former UN climate talks presidents issued a statement on Sunday, calling for urgent action.
“What ministers and other leaders say and do in Katowice at COP24 will help determine efforts for years to come and either bring the world closer to meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement – including protecting those most vulnerable to climate change – or push action further down the road.
“Any delay will only make it harder and more expensive to respond to climate change.”
It’s very urgent that they make you pay for their beliefs, all while taking long fossil fueled trips for a taxpayer funded meeting
COP24 focused on setting rules to combat climate change
Representatives from 195 countries have gathered in the Polish city of Katowice for the start of the United Nations Climate Change Conference, known as COP24.
The conference, which is being held between December 2 and 15, will focus on producing a set of rules to flesh out details of the Paris climate accord, the landmark agreement signed in 2015 by all nations, bar Nicaragua and Syria, to battle climate change.
Hold on to your wallets, folks!
