After all this time it’s pretty easy to read between the lines
The international effort to avert climate catastrophe has become mired by misinformation and bad faith actors, and must be fundamentally reformed, according to a leading UN climate expert.
Elisa Morgera, the UN special rapporteur on climate change, said the annual UN climate summits and the consensus-based, state-driven process is dominated by powerful forces pushing false narratives and by tech fixes that divert attention from real, equitable solutions for the countries least responsible and most affected.
“The current climate regime was built in a way, maybe unconsciously, that locked in an ineffective approach that is blind to the disproportionate harms of climate change – and increasingly climate solutions – and the disproportionate benefits that the current situation is accruing to very few states and very few individuals,” said Morgera, in an exclusive interview with the Guardian.
“We can observe that some states are not acting in good faith in very clear ways, which is the basis of any international regime. There is widespread disregard for the rule of international law, and also a very clear pushback on the science, and shrinking of civil spaces at all levels. Basically, the truth is out of the conversation. That is the problem – there is no space at Cop for the truth,” said Morgera.
“Fundamental reform is possible, if there is a willingness by the states and the secretariat, but it’s hard to see that at the moment.”
Her Government Speak is simply code for “nations need to crack down on the free speech of their citizens. No more skepticism. No difference of opinion. Cut them off of social media. Do not allow them on TV and in the news. Block them. Start taking everyone’s money and Do Something.” I’ve been saying for 20 years that this is all about authoritarian government, not science, and they keep saying things that prove that.

We just had an election in the United States of America, and though
global warmingclimate change was not a big part of the campaign, we all knew that Kamala Emhoff would be likely to continue Joe Biden’s policies along those lines, while Donald Trump would cancel them . . . and the voters chose Mr Trump.Naturally, the elites are horrified, but hey, that’s democracy!
