The Conference of the Parties(COP)29 ended in anger as the developing nations rejected an agreement by the wealthy nations that would have given the greedy little grifters $300 billion in funding for projects to combat climate change.
Nigeria branded the deal “a joke.” Ralph Regenvanu, envoy for the island nation of Vanuatu, stated: “The dollar amounts pledged and the emissions reductions promised are not enough. They were never going to be enough. And even then, based on our experience with such pledges in the past, we know they will not be fulfilled.”
Regenvanu has figured it out. The industrial West is not going to give a blank check to third-world kleptocrats without strings attached.
That’s exactly what the developing nations and their NGO lobbyists wanted. They’re angry because their demands for yearly $1.3 trillion in no-strings-attached grants were rejected.
That’s $11 trillion over the next decade. And we’re not supposed to ask what they’re going to use it for.
I can’t for the life of me figure out why rich countries would reject such a sweet deal.
The bitter denunciations from developing countries point to the impossibility of their “demands.”
“We are disappointed with the outcome, which clearly brings out the unwillingness of developed-country parties to live up to their responsibilities.” India’s Chandni Raina added, “India does not accept the goal proposal in its present form.… The goal is too little, it is too distant. It is 2035, too far gone.”
India has the third-largest carbon footprint of any nation on Earth. They are the fifth richest country by GDP. What are they showing up at COP29 with their hand out for?
India is acting as if it’s still a developing country. They can get away with it because the definition of “developing country” hasn’t changed since 1992 when the first COP was held.
The election of Donald Trump has thrown the entire climate change industry into chaos.
“I’m not sure we will have a better situation next year because of the geopolitical situation,” said Ana Toni, the climate negotiator for Brazil. Brazil will host COP30 next year.
Trump is right to reject the entreaties of these grifters. The Climate Action Network (CAN), which represents more than 1,900 organizations in 130 countries — all in line to receive a healthy slice of that funding — is beside themselves.
The guilt trip the developing countries and NGOs are trying to lay on the U.S. is mind-boggling. Many of those nations have benefitted hugely from U.S. aid. In short, the developing world would be a lot worse off without the U.S. sending money, expertise, and loans to bring these nations into the 20th century, much less the 21st.
The outright grifting has to end.
Obey
