GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) — Barack Obama expressed confidence at U.N. climate talks Monday that the Biden administration will ultimately get its $555 billion climate package through Congress, and faulted U.S. rivals China and Russia for what he called a “dangerous lack of urgency” in cutting their own climate-wrecking emissions.

As nations complained of lagging trust and progress in the climate talks, Obama, one of the leaders who paved the way for the historic 2015 Paris climate deal, threw in a touch of his trademark hope but admitted that “images of dystopia” were creeping into his dreams.

China has huge wind farms however, "are stymied by persistent favoritism toward the coal industry by local officials and a dearth of transmission lines to carry electricity from rural areas in the north and west to China’s fastest-growing cities."

What makes "climate change/global warming" so attractive is....."Ugandan climate activist Vanessa Nakate wrote Monday on Twitter that she was 13 when Obama was part of rich nations who promised $100 billion a year to poor countries to help them fight global warming, but said those nations broke the promise. Nakate told The Associated Press that she wasn’t attacking the former president “but that is me speaking the truth.”

“This money was promised, but it hasn’t been delivered,” she said, adding that the $100 billion a year was the “bare minimum” for climate finance."

They are too busy planning to take us over and using our money to clean up their mess.

Russia, China, and the OPECkers are likely behind a lot of the climatic hysteria campaign to wreck western economies.

I notice Obama appearing in the news these days, as often or more often than Biden.

Ramping up for the switcheroo move?

“On the night of 26 November 1703 (OS), what has been described as the worst storm in the history of the country hit Britain.”

“November had been a windy month, as storm upon storm crossed the Atlantic and caused problems across the country. A few days before the Great Storm, strong winds were said to have troubled the shores of America’s eastern seaboard, from Florida up to Virginia. It is likely that this tropical storm picked up force as it headed across the Atlantic....”

“The damage was so great that it led to a boom in the building and roofing trades: prices rose from 21s. per 1,000 plain tiles to £6, and from 50s. per 1,000 pantiles to £10, while the cost of thatch rose from 20s. to 50s.”

“Barack Obama expressed confidence at U.N. climate talks Monday that the Biden administration will ultimately get its $555 billion climate package through Congress”

Trillions of dollars are being spent on this “religion”. Mankind has always made insane sacrifices in efforts to influence the climate. The Incas and the Aztecs had more actual evidence that justified cutting people’s hearts out to influence the climate. CO2 has very little to no influence on the climate. The money is being funneled into insider pockets. This is the biggest scam in history.

Obama et AL.. Want to make the U S into a Muslim or commie country.. And save it from what? Pollution? people?

Changed into whatever they imagine... And it won’t be worth saving.

When lost...

They think they will save the world while destroying it... They have no knowledge of GOD. God has plans for this world .. And He does not need Barry’s help.

China now has the numerically largest navy on the planet. True, it’s not a blue water navy, but it is sufficient to take Taiwan...or, at least to kick off a world war. And, we’re talking about the climate?! What absolute idiocy. Someone continually talking about war doesn’t give a defecated wanton about the climate. The people beating the climate drum are disconnected from reality.

And, the US has done the most about the climate just by letting the market seek more and more efficient solutions. Where’s the How-dare-you girl when China pollutes so bad it is destroying the air quality in the United States?

Any time you read climate you can substitute “give us money.”
