World Economic Forum Chief Praises China for Planting Trees to Fight Climate Change
breitbart ^ | 27 May 2022 | PENNY STARR

The Chinese propaganda website ECNS.CN is reporting the chief of the World Economic Forum praised the Chinese Communist Party charged with genocide against minorities for its commitment to plant trees to fight climate change.

“We appreciate China’s effort in supporting the 1t.org initiative of the World Economic Forum and relevant UN initiatives,” WEF Chairman Klaus Schwab was reported to have said in the article. “We highly appreciate China’s practices upholding relative international commitment such as the Paris Agreement and Biodiversity target through Nature-Based Solutions.”

The website reported:

The World Economic Forum (WEF) said it appreciates China’s commitment to plant 70 billion trees in the next 10 years, according to its official website on Wednesday.

The WEF and China Green Foundation will undertake concrete measures together to support the fulfillment of the contribution in China, it added.

According to the US State Department under the Donald Trump administration, China has a dangerous environmental record:

The People’s Republic of China (PRC) is the world’s largest emitter of greenhouse gases; the largest source of marine debris; the worst perpetrators of illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing; and the world’s largest consumer of trafficked wildlife and timber products. While the Chinese people have suffered the worst environmental impacts of its actions, Beijing also threatens the global economy and global health by unsustainably exploiting natural resources and exporting its willful disregard for the environment through its One Belt One Road initiative. The Chinese Communist Party represses civil society and a free press, slowing changes that would benefit its citizens and people all over the world.

Yes! One tree planted for each coal power plant opened.

That's what we should be doing also...instead of letting our forests burn.

Make wood!! Build houses!! Build furniture. Get rid of plastic the right way.

Trump himself signed an EO on the WEF one trillion tree initiative. https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/articles/president-trump-signs-one-trillion-trees-executive-order-promoting-conservation-regeneration-nations-forests/

Trump was right to do so. Planting trees is a simple and natural way to scrub CO2 from the air. There was a recent major study done that concluded all the man-made CO2 pumped into the air could be scrubbed out of the atmosphere by planting 25% more trees on the Earth. The cost to do so was estimated at around $250 billion. The proposal was quickly shot down, buried and never to be heard again. Why? Because the globalist “climate change” agenda isn’t about actually helping or solving a single damn thing in regard to the environment, it’s about creating a global slush fund of trillions of dollars along with the power to tax and make laws effecting every human on Earth. Here is your evidence. You can solve the “problem” by planting trees for $250 billion rather than spend $72 trillion but of course they will never do any such thing.

Your post is contradictory. It is apparent you did not read the link where he states his commitment to the WEF’s 1 Trillion Tree’s initiative (paragraph 2). Agreed tree’s are a necessity for humans, they inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen.

I suggest the Dawn redwood.
They don't grow quite as big as giant sequoyahs or coastal
redwoods - but they do grow BIG, and FAST.

A way to grow a really big tree within only a fraction of a human lifetime.
They will grow well in many areas that the other redwoods will not.
Giant sequoyahs and coastal redwoods are picky of their surroundings / climate.

Warning - Do NOT plant these near buildings, or anything else for that matter.
They quickly get BIG - very big.

Case in point - my little brother gave one to our dad as a gift.
They planted it too close too the garage.
In less than a decade that thing had to be cut down.

As Tucker said, trees would go a long way to mitigate “climate change “ but they do not need government intervention and subsidies. They kinda take care of themselves, doing what trees do, use C02 through the process of photosynthesis. Carbon capture with no credits.

Does it really make any sense to celebrate the planting of trees to clean up a pollution problem when they can’t plant enough crops to keep their people from starving? They will die a lot faster from malnutrition than they will from CO2. Throwing out the baby with the bathwater.

I understand your point. I did read the link and even though the WEF has that initiative, it’s minimized and promoted more as a “deforestation” initiative rather than a solution to end the massive “climate change” initiatives. The WEF specifically states that this is one small part and “the rest of the emissions reductions would have to come from the energy, heavy industry and finance sectors.” In other words the global tax, boots on necks, $72 trillion slush fund and all the rest of it is still the end goal.

I’m not sure about a tax or slush fund. We don’t have one yet? The U.S has already implemented green technologies such as green cement to reduce heat in cities, digitalization of our financial systems and carbon capture, all of which Trump supported, as well as Republicans. Infact Exxon Mobile and BP have jumped on the CCS. It’s the future, whether we like it or not.
