Let's go back to this.

What has actually been achieved in mitigation of global warming?
Some have made a lot of money for themselves.
Yes. Aided and abetted by the willing fools, some apparent on this very thread.
Some take 'aiding and abetting' to the extreme to make a living out of spewing out the Devils gas hehe

Still chilly down under, Australian politicians have done an almost unbelievable job of 'tackling global heating'. And all this while CO2 taxes, permits and atmospheric levels are at record highs. Fair dinkum...

NSW records coldest June day in 122 years.

Blizzards have dumped more than half a metre of snow over parts of New South Wales over the last 48 hours as towns and cities shiver through record-breaking temperatures.

Just read this article from the Metro. I’m still not sure if it’s parody or not, it seems that climate change is an extension of white colonial racism and the patriarchy.

G7 Meeting,

One of main subjects is Global warming.

They all fly in.

They all fly out.

And just for st and giggles the Red Arrows put in an appearance.

They truly are taking the piss.

Vile, vile, hypocritical creatures.

Interesting article from the Grauniad from 9 years ago on this very subject:

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2012/feb/2...

Cameron's father-in-law has done very well too IIRC.

I agree. An important issue being undermined by people who are mainly interested in themselves.

Don‘t blame the players, blame the game. If wooden boards and cotton swimsuits were mandated by the government then they would use those.

Perhaps next time they could all walk to the G7 summit. That would save quite a bit of emissions?

I still think walking might be better, Emissions which come about, from global computer use exceed emissions from global aviation.

When the economic reality bites??

Have to say I’m very surprised, I wonder what other countries will take from this result?

G7 summit: How significant are group's climate pledges?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-574...

The world's rich nations which caused the climate crisis know what's expected of them - but they consistently fail to deliver in full.
This summit made some progress, especially on heralding the demise of coal - the fuel that drove the industrial revolution and sent emissions soaring.
But for the umpteenth time the rich club has failed to deliver on its promise to channel $100bn a year to poor nations coping with a heating climate.
Yes, bilateral deals have offered top-up funding to developing nations - but although we haven't seen the details yet, it's clear that they won't tot up to the magic 100 mark..........continues

I wonder how much of that £100 billion would end up in some despots Swiss bank account(s) ?

Well we obviously have several more AGW believers in this thread as opposed to a couple of weeks ago, given how, like my lawn, the posts have dried up.
