India calls for more action on climate change at COP28
Quote:
Commensurate to its rising influence in international economic and geopolitical affairs, India has, in the last few years, become increasingly proactive at the annual climate change conference, also known as the Conference of Parties (to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change), or simply COP.

In the meantime, India produced a record amount of electricity from coal

And is using COP28 to beg for money

Emerging world needs climate finance and to burn coal, India says
https://www.reuters.com/world/india/coal-will-remain-an-important-part

So apparently the issue for India isn't REALLY about climate bc they want to burn more coal, and they want others to burn more coal. They just want to get money.
Anything that Modhi days is bullshit

Trump repeatedly denies climate science and says ‘we shouldn’t be worried about global warming’

-change-global-warming-b2459167.html
Trump has previously also called climate change ‘nonexistent’ and ‘make-believe problem’
The former president also attacked US climate envoy John Kerry during the town hall and alleged that “he is destroying our country”.
He has posted numerous tweets on X/Twitter implying that cold weather contradicts the concept of climate change, even though the World Meteorological Organization has reported that the 20 warmest years on record occurred in the past 22 years.
He said: “We have to fire up our factories. Wind is not going to fire up our factories and it’s the most expensive energy, even solar. I like solar from a concept standpoint, but it’s massively expensive and we can’t allow China to build a factory a week and we do nothing. They build a coal plant and they’re obvious about it. And then [Joe] Biden goes to see them about global warming.”

Global Emissions Are Set For Another Record This Year, Thanks To China And India

Outsourcing our manufacturing to other nations who will emit on our behalf isn't a solution for climate change, and everything our government proposes to do is either a scam on behalf of the uber wealthy or a way to deprive everyone else.

Unless We Cut Emissions, Ice Sheets, Forests and Ocean Currents Are Headed for Catastrophe
Chelsea Harvey, E&E News | Dec 6, 2023

CLIMATEWIRE | The melting Greenland ice sheet is the single largest contributor to global sea-level rise — and some experts are warning it could soon cross the threshold into a slow but irreversible death spiral.
A sweeping new scientific report, with contributions from more than 200 researchers, finds that continued warming could trigger not only the collapse of the Greenland ice sheet but a wide variety of tipping points in the Earth's climate system. Once crossed, those thresholds would have unstoppable consequences. https://global-tipping-points.org/
That means today’s climate efforts — or failures — could commit the planet to centuries of change, affecting human societies for generations to come.
Chief among the report’s recommendations is a rapid phase-out of greenhouse gas emissions from human land use and the burning of fossil fuels. Countries have agreed to keep global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius, or as close to that target as possible — a goal that requires global emissions to reach net zero by 2050.
Greenland is one immediate worry. While it’s still unclear exactly how much warming it would take to push the ice sheet over the edge, some experts say it could be as little as 1.5 degrees above preindustrial levels. Temperatures have already risen between 1.1 and 1.3 degrees.
Other tipping points could also be triggered at 1.5 degrees of warming, including unstoppable ice loss in West Antarctica; rampant thawing of permafrost; widespread coral die-offs; and the collapse of the North Atlantic subpolar gyre, a circular ocean current that helps distribute heat through parts of the Northern Hemisphere.
None of them is definite yet. And not all would happen quickly: The collapse of the Greenland ice sheet could take hundreds or thousands of years to unfold.
But if triggered, the tipping points would lock in a future world that’s dramatically different from today’s.
“This report is the most comprehensive review to date on tipping points in the Earth System,” said Sina Loriani of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, one of the report’s lead authors, in a statement. “Crossing these thresholds may trigger fundamental and sometimes abrupt changes that could irreversibly determine the fate of essential parts of our Earth system for the coming hundreds or thousands of years.”
Averting a crisis
The report evaluates a total of 26 tipping points across the Earth system, including ice sheets and glaciers, forests, grasslands, ocean currents, monsoons and even tropical clouds. Many could have dire consequences for human life if activated.
Rampant ice melt could dramatically raise global sea levels for centuries to come. The shutdown of major ocean currents could disrupt weather patterns around the globe.
Permafrost — a frozen layer of soil common in the Arctic — releases large volumes of carbon dioxide and methane as it thaws. Unstoppable thawing could unleash a torrent of carbon emissions into the atmosphere, further accelerating global warming.
Continued warming and drought could drive the Amazon into an uncontrollable transformation from lush rainforest into dry grasslands. That, too, would release huge quantities of carbon dioxide into the air. It would likely drive massive losses in biodiversity, and could further warm and dry the local climate, threatening agricultural production. https://subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eenews/2022/03/08/amazon-ra

For most of the 26 tipping points, it’s uncertain exactly how much warming it would take to trigger them. Several could be imminent once the planet warms by 1.5 degrees, while others are likely more distant possibilities.
And if one tipping point is triggered, the report warns, others could fo

So,when are you going to get off your tech hobby- horse "investment/ market", elite- privilege, pro- endless war, pointless zero- carbon, and empty virtue- signalling agendas, and start promoting practical action that will really help?

OH, TOUCHE!
Yeah, you really got me with that name-calling!!
Especially since you implied I was too sane, too rational, and too flexible to be human!
Now, how about addressing THE TOPIC?
PS: Reality is what it is. All your blather and brainwashing isn't gonna change it.
