Remember, this is all about science
German president says global rules key to tackling climate change
German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier has called for international cooperation and adherence to shared rules to overcome the climate crisis.
“Without greater international cooperation and mutual trust, we will not succeed in overcoming global challenges such as climate change or the fight against hunger and poverty,” Steinmeier said at the opening of the third Hamburg Sustainability Conference (HSC) on Monday.
The conference in the northern German city focuses on the themes of resilient economies, technology and the future of the planet under the motto “The Power of Cooperation: Driving Progress Together,” with around 1,600 participants from 115 countries attending.
Wait, did they just say that people took long fossil fueled trips from around the world for this? Wasn’t there just a meeting in Bonn the other week? And one before that? And before that? And the big one in Brazil in November last year?
Steinmeier said it remained important to continue working with full force to combat climate change, even in economically difficult times.
“Only if we work more closely together internationally and can rely on shared rules, only if we can count on a strong United Nations and its subsidiary organizations – only then will we succeed in achieving the sustainability goals,” he said.
Well, I certainly hope they have the AC turned off
You know the AC is cranked as they attempt to instituted their authoritarian cult on Everyone Else.
Teach seems to believe that science should not impact policy.
Smoke up kids! Smog is harmless! Speed does NOT kill! Drunk drivers are NOT dangerous! Fentanyl is overregulated! Asbestos gets a bad rap! Benzene is a wonderful solvent! Carbon monoxide is good!
Rimjob again with the TDS.

A/C is not a problem, the electricity to power it is. Why? Because burning fossil fuels to generate electricitiy generates CO2 which is causing the Earth to warm.
Yes Teach, global warming is a hoax, that’s why people are using so much air conditioning!
Just admit the obvious truth. Of course CO2 is causing warming and you and the MAGAts can’t be bothered.
When youse guys voted for Donny Dumbass to harass immigrants, to NOT invade Iran, to rig elections and to NOT recognize global warming – You won!!
Sorry, allegedly causing the warming. As said before, keep trying…
Sorry, but the evidence supports that CO2 is causing the warming. Are you waiting for “proof”?
Why did you accept that the Earth is warmming?
Donald Trump has allegedly diddled underage girls, but the evidence is not strong. On the other hand there is strong evidence that he has sexually assaulted women.
Nope, still no verifiable cause-effect evidence, and still no simple experiment showing more CO2 making something warmer than less CO2. We must need to spend more money….
Nice try…
Our sweltering St Louisian said:
Yet, our very noble climate activists want people to replace their evil, gas-fueled heating systems with heat-pump based systems, systems which are reversible and work as central air conditioning systems in the summer! 🙂
Of course, we banned the use of freon, the most effective refrigerant we had, for environmental reasons, and are now having to use supposedly safer but also less efficient refrigerants in heat pumps, meaning that the systems, in both heating and cooling modes, have to run longer to provide the same heating/cooling, meaning more sparktricity being used. What is given with one hand is taken away with the other.
Naturally, Reichskanzler “Frank-Walter Steinmeier has called for international cooperation and adherence to shared rules to overcome the climate crisis,” because he knows that we selfish Americans will not surrender our sovereignty to a bunch of Euro-wienie foreigners, and he’s beyond pissed off that we will not cooperate with his Führerbefehle. The Europeans whom we helped to liberate from a proposed continent-wide government directed from Berlin haven’t gotten over that yet, and would like a return to the progressive German policies of 1933-1945, policies in which the government could simply dictate, for our own good, of course, how we are allowed to run our lives.
Rimjob suffers from Class B personality disorders.
Yes!
They don’t really want “global rules”. They just want rules on the USA so they can go back to collecting USAID funds to support their own left-wing NGOs and aristocrats. Whether or not climate change is true, there is no doubt the climate change agenda is only all about the money. No attempts will be made to convince China, India or Pakistan to stop polluting the air, water or land at the massive pace they are doing. “Asian” annual pollution makes all carbon savings in the West futile. None of the African countries or small pacific island nations are approaching China for “climate reparations”. In the Kyoto and Paris agreements, they are specifically exempt from payments for their climate damage. It’s not about the carbon. It never was about the carbon. It’s about the money.
