No, no, definitely not a cult
Conflict must not distract from climate action, leaders warn COP31
Wars and trade disputes should not be allowed to distract the world from its struggle to combat global ?warming, leaders told the COP31 climate conference on Wednesday, as negotiators prepared to hash out a new deal to try to limit climate change.
COP31 host Turkey has been pushing countries to put a goal to expand electrification at the centre of a final deal, even as critics say it may do little to curb warming without a clearer plan to reduce the use of fossil fuels.
Heads of state gave back-to-back speeches ?on Wednesday to lay out their positions.
Brazil’s President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, whose country hosted last year’s conference, told the summit that climate change had since ?slipped down the global agenda.
“We started talking more about weapons and tariffs than the survival of future generations,” he said. “The planet cannot ?be at the mercy of hegemonic struggles.”
Turkey’s President Tayyip Erdogan echoed the comment.
“Wars, crises, migration, famine and poverty increase the need for international solidarity each day,” he said.
OK, cool, so, we’re supposed to now ignore Ukraine and the Palestinians? Should we let this distract us?
It’s OK, because the jets were going there anyway!
What, we’re now on the 31st Climate conference, and nothing has been done to save Mother Gaia?
Could it possibly be that these things are utterly useless?
I was just telling my wife about this and told her all the things we wouldn’t have without fossil fuels, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, iPhones and computers and all the plastics and modern luxuries we take for granted.
She then commented we wouldn’t have private jets either. Bugger off all you climate idiots.
Well, at least they didn’t eradicate 50 acres of forest and build a luxury compound for the globalist elite planning our subjugation this time.
Credit where credit is due.
People are losing focus on climate goals. Professional climate activists hardest hit.
