Funny how the article didn’t go into how the hell China got involved with “leading” the poor countries.

The governments of these Least Developed Nations have zero financial incentive to fight "global warming." They are cheerleaders for "climate change." They more weather calamities that occur will have them demanding even more money from us.
In the NBA they call it 'tanking.'
