WEF Worried Ukraine War Could Jeopardize 'Climate Progress,' Hopes It Leads to 'Constructive Climate Efforts'
Pro Deo et Libertate on Substack ^ | April 12, 2022 | Catherine Salgado

The World Economic Forum (WEF) is always focused on the most important things. For instance, on April 11 WEF posted an article about what should obviously be a major concern as Ukrainians are blown up by the Russian army: climate change. “Russia’s invasion of Ukraine need not hinder climate progress. Here’s why,” the WEF article title stated. The article then went on to worry about how the slaughter of Ukraine’s civilians might distract from the (clearly) greater threat of climate change, and how there could actually be a positive angle here—crises sometimes make the global energy economy greener! I’m sure dead Ukrainians would be happy to know they lost their lives in such a noble cause as pushing the world toward combatting alleged climate change.

“It’s ‘now or never’ to stave off a climate catastrophe, according to a UN report published last week.

But ‘now’ happens to be in the midst of another unfolding tragedy. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has incurred efforts to punitively isolate the world’s third-biggest oil producer, in ways that threaten to impede the climate progress made to date.”

At least WEF admitted the Russian invasion of Ukraine is a tragedy. But considering how quickly WEF went on to mourn how the invasion might “impede the climate progress made” one wonders exactly what WEF considers the tragedy—the deaths of Ukrainians or the lack of attention to “climate change.”

"Previous energy price shocks spurred progressive, climate-friendly measures."

Actually, "green" energy isn’t as great or nature-friendly as WEF would like you to believe.

Per 2013 and 2014 studies, windmills or wind turbines were estimated to kill hundreds of thousands of birds yearly just in the US (and they take up lots of land). Solar panels also kill thousands of birds. Furthermore, so-called climate experts have been wrong dozens of times throughout the last few decades in their predictions and analyses.

It’s interesting that WEF head Klaus Schwab once boasted that Vladimir Putin had been trained by WEF. Now WEF sees Russia’s invasion of Ukraine as a potentially positive catalyst for “constructive climate efforts.” There’s nothing like helping train a dictator and then using the dictator’s war to push your own socialist, globalist agenda.

Yes, folks, they ARE that clueless and thoughtless. We won’t even talk about their “scientific knowledge”.

These WEF idiots pose a far greater danger to our constitution and freedom of speech than Putin does! I wish they could both lose.

I am watching old Hawaii five 0 shows. They frequently show the Arizona Memorial.

It surprises me that with all of the current technology that they don’t know how to deal with the leaking oil

These folks are so self centered that the beginning of
World War III. has passed them by completely.

Later on it will be “How did this happen???”.

I think that the WEF would make good fertilizer.

They could but it would disturb the gravesite.

It isn’t leaking a lot, the stuff that comes up is broken down by sun and dispersed

If you think about it, Europe is suiciding their economy with sanctions. This will inevitably dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions. A win for the planet!
