I wonder if we can troll the hell out of this?
Global citizens’ assembly planned to address climate crisis
People around the world will have a chance to discuss responses to the climate crisis in a planned global citizens’ assembly to inform UN talks in Glasgow in 2021, organisers said on Thursday.
The project aims to build on similar initiatives in individual countries such as Ireland, France and Canada, where citizens’ assemblies have given politicians a steer by generating ambitious proposals on divisive issues.
“Young people are not just frustrated by rising temperatures and declining ecosystems; we’re also frustrated by the constant recycling of outdated political solutions,†said Susan Nakyung Lee, 19, a South Korean student working on the project.
The plan is to launch a core virtual assembly made up of 1,000 people chosen by lottery from around the world, in spring or early summer, to run for several months ahead of the Cop26 talks in November.
So, what if hundreds, if not thousands, of Skeptics get in the lottery, and get picked? That would be fun, right? My recommendation would be for all Believers to get rid of their own fossil fueled vehicles and travel and make their own lives carbon neutral.
Organisers are working with other groups to hold local events around the world to broaden participation and build a lasting platform to host deliberations on global heating.
They love them some events and chats and protests and conferences and stuff, but, they never really actually show they believe in what they’re pushing by modifying their own lives. Weird, right?
Although the assembly has no power to compel governments, supporters hope its recommendations will carry enough moral authority to influence policymakers.
Um, shouldn’t government be listening to We The People, rather than government dictating how we live our lives? Not in Warmist World.
