This Davos?
Remember, they were just there at the beginning of December 2025
At Davos, Phasing Out Fossil Fuels Is No Longer Debatable
As leaders gather at the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos, they do so at a moment of real consequence for humanity’s shared future. The choices made now about energy, finance, and cooperation will shape not only climate outcomes, but economic resilience and global stability for decades to come.
The evidence is no longer in dispute. Continued expansion of coal, oil, and gas is incompatible with planetary stability and long-term prosperity. Fossil fuels remain the primary driver of global warming and ecosystem degradation, creating material risks to food systems, public health, infrastructure, and national economies.
Yet despite these realities, the fossil fuel economy continues to exert outsized political and financial influence. This was evident at COP30 in Belém, where negotiations once again failed to deliver a clear, binding commitment to phase out fossil fuels, and where one in every 25 attendees represented fossil fuel interests. The gap between what science demands and what politics delivers remains dangerously wide.
Still, leadership is emerging. The Belém Declaration on the Transition Away from Fossil Fuels signaled a shift toward coalitions of countries choosing action over paralysis, guided by science and informed by Indigenous knowledge. Initiatives led by Colombia and The Netherlands to advance a Fossil Fuel Phase-Out Conference show how progress can be accelerated without abandoning the annual United Nations climate summits. Strengthening global cooperation remains essential, even as new coalitions accelerate action where progress has stalled.
No mention yet of all the people who flew fossil fueled jets, especially private ones, to Davos and COP30
For business and finance leaders, the message should be unmistakable. The question is no longer whether the fossil fuel era will end, but how. Who will lead, and who will be left behind? A just and orderly phase-out that does not unfairly burden nations least responsible for the crisis is not only a moral imperative; it is a strategic economic opportunity.
Treating fossil fuels as instruments of short-term geopolitical leverage may appear decisive, but it entrenches fragility, delays diversification, and misreads the future of energy security.
A whole-planet approach is essential. That means phasing out planet-harmful fossil fuel subsidies, redirecting finance toward renewable energy and storage, and investing in living forests through platforms such as the Tropical Forest Forever Facility. Addressing climate change, food systems, health, and economic stability in silos is no longer viable.
Nope, no mention of climahypocrisy. Just doomsday cult Authoritarianism.
Utter bullshit
“The evidence is no longer in dispute. Continued expansion of coal, oil, and gas is incompatible with planetary stability and long-term prosperity.”
Switzerland already gets 98% of its electricity from renewables.
Aircraft? That will probably be the last mode of transport to change over to electric
Our own Mad King Donald of Orange will set them straight!
Neither King Donald, William nor CumBum’s tweeter Army can refute that the Earth is warming a result of our burning coal, oil and gas. Today, they don’t even try.
They just deny.
And J can’t verify that it is, as usual
Jill continues to just deny.
But she can relax, since Mr trump says “nyet”!!
Deny what?
well, they want to act like kings of old. it other words, why have all of this neat stuff if everyone else can have it too. they want to return to lords and serfs. where we serfs have to beg for anything they have. what the point in being rich and powerful if you can have stuff like them ?
as I see it, it comes down to greed. they want everything for themselves and nothing for anyone not them.
Krazy King Donald of Orange continues to embarrass the United States of America – this time in Davos.
How odd that we don’t feel any embarrassment, but mostly pride.
“We saved Greenland! We used to have it! We were stupid to give it back!”
He backed off on using force to get Greenland.
“Canada survives because of us!!”
He mocked Macron’s accent.
He mocked Britain, France, Switzerland.
Perhaps trump’s objective was to unite Europe against the United States. Success!!
World, please understand the King Donald of Orange does not speak for the majority of Americans.
Mr Dana must not have listened to the Davos speech. Big lie after Big Lie, whine after whine, insult after insult…
CBS Poll: Trump Approval Hits 3-Month High With GOP Voters
By Mark Swanson | Wednesday, 21 January 2026 | 12:38 PM EST
President Donald Trump’s approval rating among Republicans has climbed to its highest level in three months, according to a new CBS News/YouGov poll released this week.
The poll, released Monday ahead of the one-year anniversary of Trump’s return to office, found that 90% of Republican voters approve of his job performance — his strongest support within the party since early fall.
Across five CBS News/YouGov polls from early October, Republican approval of Trump’s job performance increased from 87% from the beginning of the month to 89% by the end of the month, remained at that level in late November, and then dipped to 86% in mid-December.
Among all adults, the polls found Trump’s overall approval at 42% in early October, with 58% disapproving. Approval edged down to 41% by the end of October and 40% in late November, reflecting a gradual softening in the national numbers even as Republican support remained strong.
The latest survey put Trump’s overall approval at 41%, with 59% disapproving — unchanged from December. Approval among independent voters stood at 31%.
A year into his term, most Republicans say Trump has exceeded expectations, while Americans overall say more needs to be done to bring down prices. The poll found that 74% of respondents say the Trump administration has not done enough to lower prices on things like food, gas, and services.
And 75% overall say that their income is not keeping up with inflation.
Nearly six in 10 Republicans say Trump has done more than expected in his second term, according to the poll. Overall, 38% of respondents say he has done more than expected, while another 38% say his performance has matched their expectations.
Among Republicans, 59% say Trump’s presidency has made them feel confident, while 51% describe themselves as satisfied, and 50% say they feel safe.
Awesome!
I voted for this!
Bwaha! Lolgf!
MAGA47 Motherfuckers!
Did the Left run out of retarded teen aged girls to scold the world leaders?
Bwaha!

We don’t deserve him.
Unfortunately for America and Americans, trump is president for ALL Americans not just white conservative men. And not even white conservative men are optimistic about the economy.
Women, non-whites, those under 45 yrs, liberals, Dems, moderates, Independents, those with 4 yr degrees… are not happy with trump.
Everyone agreed that taking Greenland by military force would damage the NATO alliance and make the world less stable.

Anyway, browse the actual poll.
“Trump disguises himself as a Muslim migrant so Europe will let him invade Greenland”.
