It’s probably working. It’s worked in the case of China, where Warmists keep believing China’s BS on the nation fighting ‘climate change’ even though they keep doing things like building more and more coal fired power plants
Seeking World Recognition, Taliban Vows to Help Fight Terror and Climate Change
In comments shared exclusively with Newsweek, a senior Taliban official has called for global recognition of his group’s rule over Afghanistan, where he vowed militants would never again be allowed to launch attacks against other countries.
And he said his group has plenty to offer if the world embraces it. (snip)
As these conversations develop, Abdul Qahar Balkhi, a member of the Taliban’s Cultural Commission, told Newsweek that his group sought worldwide recognition of the Islamic Emirate. (snip)
And he argued that such a move (recognizing the Taliban’s rule over Afghanistan) would be to the benefit of not only Afghanistan but nations across the globe.
“We believe the world has a unique opportunity of rapprochement and coming together to tackle the challenges not only facing us but the entire humanity,” Balkhi added, “and these challenges ranging from world security and climate change need the collective efforts of all, and cannot be achieved if we exclude or ignore an entire people who have been devastated by imposed wars for the past four decades.”
They’re saying the right things to sway Progressives, who will care less about the brutality of the Taliban, how they treat women, and other issues as long as the Taliban says the right things.
And though the Taliban have expressed their concern for the environment and its future, the group’s takeover place it effectively in control of what’s estimated by the U.S. Geological Survey to be up to $1 trillion in mineral resources. The reserves include lithium, an increasingly sought-after rare mineral, which may attract further investment from regional countries such as China, which already dominates the rare-earth market critical for producing modern technology.
And they will ignore the environmental destruction, along with the human rights violations (just like with China), if they can get the reserves which will help in “going green”, like electric cars.

Several hundred US troops have left Afghanistan, on the same day President Joe 
This summer, several picturesque countries in the Middle East became tinderboxes. As extreme temperatures and severe droughts ravaged the region, forests burned, and cities became islands of unbearable heat. In June, Kuwait recorded a temperature of 53.2 degrees Celsius (127.76 degrees Fahrenheit), while Oman, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia all recorded over 50 degrees (122 degrees). A month later, temperatures in Iraq spiked to 51.5 degrees (124.7 degrees), and Iran recorded a close 51 degrees (123.8 degrees).
Ministers have dismissed hopes that Joe Biden will extend the August 31 deadline for withdrawing US troops from Afghanistan as the UK, France and Germany prepare to make a last-ditch plea in G7 talks today.
GLOBAL CLIMATE STRIKE
We’re in the midst of a climate crisis, mass species extinction, a world health pandemic, socio-economic inequality crises, and more. The current system actively strives towards highlighting the voices of the most privileged through a racist and white-savior narrative that portrays people from the Global South as underdeveloped, poor, and voiceless. Industrialized countries of the Global North have been doing this for centuries through colonialism, imperialism, the perpetuation of systemic injustices and their fixation on everlasting growth. However, people from the Global South or the most affected areas are not underdeveloped, poor, or voiceless, but battling with the consequences of colonization and neocolonization while actively being silenced. They are strong, fearless and conscious as they have been fighting and addressing the root cause of these crises for centuries, that is the systems of oppression and injustice created by the richest of the Global North.
