This is just so inconvenient for the Cult of Climastrology activists
Climate change gets pushed out of the spotlight
Climate change is no longer at the top of the agenda for world leaders and many executives, having been shoved aside due to the Russian war in Ukraine as well as COVID-19 and inflation.
Why it matters: The recent developments come at a hinge point for climate action, with the most ambitious Paris Agreement temperature target perilously close to slipping out of reach. (snip)
Inflation has increasingly taken up political oxygen in Washington and other global capitals, along with the fast-spreading Omicron variant that’s only now ebbing.
Against this backdrop, the Ukraine war is occupying world leaders’ time, and the ongoing, large-scale Russian military action in Ukraine could knock climate much further down the priority list.
That’s so terrible for climate cultists!
Threat level: John Kerry, President Biden’s climate envoy, warned last week that the crisis in Europe risks the world losing focus on the urgent tasks of driving emissions down and mobilizing financial resources from the private sector.

Zoom in: Kelly Sims Gallagher, director of the Climate Policy Lab at The Fletcher School at Tufts University, said she is concerned the conflict in Europe will sap the momentum from climate action.
“The problem is that now is exactly the time that countries need to be converting their pledges in Glasgow into concrete actions and policies so that they can set their economies on a path toward net zero,” she told Axios via email.
Life is just so inconvenient for people trying to force Other People to comply
What’s next: On Monday, a major new U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment of climate change impacts, adaptation and vulnerability will be released. It is expected to contain new details of just how far behind we are in preventing the worst consequences of global warming.
Its message may be drowned out, though, this time by the sounds of artillery shells exploding in the heart of Europe.
All the cultists complaining about things like war getting in the way of implementing their Progressive (nice Fascism) seem to have no empathy for those going through war, COVID, high inflation. Yet, so few of the cultists change their own lives. Among most citizens Doing Something about ‘climate change’ is popular in theory, but, not in practice, and it almost always comes in low when a poll is taken on what’s important.
