      The president of a climate conference, is also the head of a massive oil company. The whole thing’s a farce.

      I mean, what’s the point?

      At this point euthanising your own children, would probably be a kindness.

          I guess nuclear winter may cancel out global warming?

            It should at least get rid of the human infection

            Nuclear winter was likely just a cold war scare tactic of scientists to prevent the loss of millions of lives.

        Optics and propaganda is the point. They throw a climate conference, the disinterested public sees that “people are trying” and goes about their day ignorant of the ongoing atrocities destroying our planet

          Keep in mind that the planet isn’t being destroyed. The planet and life will continue, nothing we can do will ever stop that.

          What is happening is we are destroying the ability of mammals to survive on it. Especially mammals at the top of the food chain.

      It was a farce when they were using cop28 to set up oil deals. At this point, it’s real life satire.

      Doing anything climate related in Dubai has to be a joke.
