The countries committed to permanently ending fossil fuel use now far outnumber those against. Their problem? Their chief organising conference, the 30-year-old COP conferences, comes with vetoes from the petro-states. This year, 1,600 fossil industry lobbyists attended, and they managed to get any mention of fossil fuels scrubbed from the final agreement.
This ridiculous state of affairs can’t continue, and this is a classic move to break the deadlock. Sideline COP & the petrostates, by creating an alternative, they don’t have power in.
3rd world countries that need cheap energy are to blame instead of one of the richest countries selling stuff because it wants to be richer?
if they need cheap energy renewables are the cheapest, especially with the 3rd worlds links to China, building coal power plants is just ignorance
