'Broken promises, broken lives, and broken records': UN chief calls for 'dramatic' climate action
France24 ^ | November 20, 2023

Posted on 11/20/2023 8:39:25 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

The UN chief issued his rallying call as the global body warned in a new report that countries' greenhouse gas-cutting pledges put Earth on track for warming far beyond key limits – possibly up to a catastrophic 2.9 degrees Celsius this century.

The response must "light the fuse to an explosion of ambition in 2025," he said.

"That means national plans with clear 2030 and 2035 targets, that align with 1.5 degrees, that cover the whole economy, and that plot a course for ending fossil fuels."

Taking into account countries' carbon-cutting plans, the UN warned Monday that the planet is on a path for disastrous heating of between 2.5C and 2.9C by 2100. Based just on existing policies and emissions-cutting efforts, global warming would reach 3C.

The UN chief deserves a speedy trial for his crimes against humanity, and when convicted, an immediate expulsion from civilized society. A quick, one-way trip to Mars might be the ticket.

You first, chief. Show us how it’s done, or else STFU.

3 C from the little Ice age is pretty comfy.
I would take it.

The UN is the max-HQ of broken promises.
As for broken lives, this is the hoped for future of each and every talking turd that works for that loathsome loser of an organization. Eff you and the septic tank you oozed from.

“A broken record.” A perfect description of the Left.

The thieves and conmen gathering steam for their 28th annual clusterf*** in Dubai beginning 11/30. Expect more of this effluent, and pressure for the US to back a UN “World Climate Emergency.”

The goal is eventually to abscond with hundreds of billions of dollars (”saving the environment” is merely their fig leaf to hide behind) so you know they are serious, even though the scam defies all science and reason.

"The UN chief issued his rallying call" for more money and more control.

More fear. More doom. More lies. More hyperbole. More.... because what's been done already hasn't kept their bank accounts topped up enough. More! Dammit! More!

Climate Change Alarmism is dangerous fake news. They believe there’s too many people on the planet. If they ever get the power, they’ll kill half of humanity, and odds are that they’ll start with us first.
In addition to being brainwashed about ‘climate’, they also hate America and white people.
Dangerous morons.
The UN is an America bashing dump and should be booted out of the country.
Let them peddle their BS somewhere else.

The UN is a criminal organization that needs to be disassembled and sent back to hell where it belongs!

"That means national plans with clear 2030 and 2035 targets, that align with 1.5 degrees, that cover the whole economy, and that plot a course for ending fossil fuels."

This UN Chief is getting his information from alchemists who are just making up numbers. Carbon dioxide has nothing to do with climate change. Why, after 50 years of failed predictions, have these people not figured it out?

Water vapor accounts for 98.35% of all greenhouse gases, and 100% of climate change. Water vapor is a powerful greenhouse gas owing to the presence of the hydroxyl bond which strongly absorbs in the infra-red. The volume of water vapor in the atmosphere is more than a 105 times the volume of carbon dioxide.

Just because carbon dioxide is also a greenhouse gas does not mean that a minuscule volume of CO2 is a factor in climate change. Water vapor dominates and drives the weather and climate. Carbon dioxide has is own life cycle.

Global weather events like floods and hurricanes are the end result of water vapor activity interacting with the Sun and the atmosphere.

Climate change is the long term result of water vapor interacting with the Sun (sunspots, solar cycles, solar flares, etc.), aerosols in the atmosphere, and the oceans.

If water vapor cannot be controlled by mankind, and water vapor is the cause of climate change, then mankind has nothing to do with climate change.

Climate change is here have no doubt
Too much rain too much drought

Run in circles scream and shout

It’ll cook your brain, freeze your feet
Too much rain, too much heat

Snow coming soon no relief in sight
Tornados and floods you better run for your life

Climate change is here, better hide in fear.
They need our money or it gets severe
Too much rain, too much drought
Run in circles, scream and shout

Give him a ride on the next Starship/SuperHeavy Integrated Test Flight.
