Climate change will be here long after the war, but the leadership is neglecting it<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

CEO of environmental advocacy organization Adam Teva V\u2019Din says that one year in, the current government is the \u2018worst for the environment in Israel\u2019s history\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By SUE SURKES<\/a> 4 January 2024, 4:48 pm  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Wednesday, the Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel suggested climate change as a factor in the highly rare gathering of large numbers of manta rays giving birth off Israel\u2019s Mediterranean coast, when the breeding season is usually during spring and fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday, the Israel Electric Corporation reported another rare, and therefore problematic, phenomenon \u2014 thousands of jellyfish, usually seen during the summer, massing around the filters that bring seawater into a power station in southern Israel for cooling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scientists have warned that the effects of global warming \u2014 driven by humanity\u2019s continuing burning of fossil fuels \u2014 will be exacerbated by the natural El Nino phenomenon, which has begun and will last one to three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The things that didn\u2019t happen last year include passing a Climate Act \u2014 which the coalition promised to do within six months \u2014 and introducing a carbon tax<\/a>, discussions about which were held under the previous government but abandoned by the current one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What can I say \u2013 it\u2019s refreshing to be reminded that European and Anglosphere countries don\u2019t have a monopoly on stupid green activists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
