Since 1660, Nullius in verba was the Royal Society\u2019s motto.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/strong>

Yesterday\u2019s post showed how American science societies have taken to parroting climatist suppositions rather than applying critical intelligence to claims of a \u201cclimate crisis.\u201d That unquestioning attitude betrays the science method expressed in the Royal Society\u2019s motto.\u00a0 Today presents Tilak Doshi describing how the same pattern appears in international institutions supposed to be objective reporters of natural conditions. His Daily Signal article is\u00a0The Climate Agenda\u2019s March Through the Institutions: Can It Be Stopped?<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0Excerpts in italics with my bolds and added images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A spate of stories in the media recently provides a remarkable illustration of how the globalist policy agenda of the climate-industrial complex has captured key international institutions<\/strong> and perverted<\/strong> their original organizational aims<\/strong>. From initially serving broad, laudable objectives for the welfare of their constituents, these institutions have been subverted over the years to serve the insistent pseudoscientific claims of climate alarmists.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The corruption of global institutions<\/strong> has, in turn, led to significant opposition that is becoming apparent. There is the prospect of an incoming Trump administration<\/strong> that is avowedly skeptical of the claims of an alleged climate crisis and is intent on exiting the U.N.\u2019s Paris Agreement and its \u201cnet zero by 2050\u201d policy<\/strong> target for a second time. This presents a welcome challenge to these corrupt institutions.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will President Donald Trump and some of the populist parties in Europe
be capable of countering the entrenched globalist climate agenda?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The World Bank<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

On Oct. 17, Oxfam published a report that shockingly found that up to $41 billion in World Bank climate finance\u2014nearly 40% of all climate funds disbursed by the World Bank<\/strong> over the past seven years\u2014is \u201cunaccounted for between the time projects were approved and when they closed.\u201d In other words, no one knows how the money was used. There is no paper trail<\/strong> revealing where the money went or what the accomplished results were.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Green cronyism,<\/strong> ranging from the Solyndra debacle\u2014the waste of almost half a billion dollars of taxpayers\u2019 money on a failed solar farm project under President Barack Obama\u2019s watch\u2014to President Joe Biden\u2019s duplicitously-named Inflation Reduction Act,<\/strong> which will unleash an estimated $1 trillion deluge of subsidies on favored \u201cgreen\u201d industries, is nothing new. But it is instructive to trace the World Bank\u2019s decline<\/strong> from its honorable founding objectives to its current status as yet another institution advocating green causes.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Jim Yong Kim, reflecting the progressive virtues of Obama, who appointed him as president of the World Bank in 2012, imposed a ban on the financing of coal-fired power stations<\/strong> in 2013. This was followed by a ban on<\/strong> investments in all new upstream oil and gas resource development projects.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The distinguished economist Deepak Lal, a former research administrator of the World Bank, remarked that Kim incredulously\u00a0\u201cover-ruled the cost-benefit estimates<\/strong>\u00a0of coal-based power over solar and wind-based power generation produced\u00a0by his own economic staff,<\/strong>\u00a0justifying this by reference to a wish to cut global emissions of greenhouse gases.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The World Bank\u2019s objections to the use of fossil fuels despite their importance to economic growth and poverty alleviation<\/strong>\u2014which constitute its foundational institutional objectives\u2014can be traced to the intellectual evolution of its management under James Wolfensohn during his decade as president (1995-2005).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wolfensohn traced the arc from the old regime to the new. The old was<\/strong> represented by the \u201cWashington consensus\u201d of free markets, liberal trading regimes, sound money, and entrepreneurship<\/strong> associated with the classical liberalism of Adam Smith.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new intellectual environment<\/strong> of the World Bank\u2019s management\u2014personified by Joseph Stiglitz,<\/strong> chief economist of the World Bank (1997-2000)\u2014was defined by the theoretical failures of the free market, especially in accounting for the alleged negative climate impacts of fossil fuel use.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stiglitz, a climate alarmist<\/strong>, wrote in a 2015 court brief for a failed climate lawsuit brought on behalf of a group of children against the U.S. federal government that \u201cfossil fuel-based economies imposed \u2018incalculable\u2019 costs on society and shifting to clean energy will pay off.\u201d <\/em>[See Climatists Make Their Case by Omitting Facts<\/strong><\/a>]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rupert Darwall, a former adviser to the United Kingdom\u2019s chancellor of the exchequer and author of \u201cGreen Tyranny,\u201d encapsulates the betrayal of the World Bank to its founding objectives as follows:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The World Bank\u2019s mission has been subverted<\/strong> by green ideologues who assert that a low-carbon world benefits the world\u2019s poor but fail to acknowledge that making energy much more costly increases poverty.<\/strong> The World Bank tags itself as \u2018working for a world free of poverty\u2019 \u2026 In making its choice between development and sustainability, the World Bank has decided it is going to try and \u2018save the planet\u2019 on the backs of the poor.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

By abdicating its founding principles for alleviating global poverty, the World Bank has taken a lead role among multilateral financial institutions in denying vast financial resources to poorer countries. It has\u00a0hypocritically vetoed the right of developing countries to<\/strong>\u00a0adopt the path of\u00a0economic growth<\/strong>\u00a0and environmental improvement<\/strong>\u00a0that the now-rich countries had taken up successfully since the Industrial Revolution two centuries ago. The World Bank\u2019s obsessive support for intermittent, low-yield renewable energy such as solar and wind power comes at the cost of its central charter to help the poor, an outcome that can only be described as egregiously unjust.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

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

The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The U.N. IPCC<\/strong> issued a news release on Dec. 6<\/strong> prior to the start of a \u201cscoping\u201d meeting in Kuala Lumpur of over 230 experts from 70 countries to draft outlines of working group contributions to the U.N. IPCC\u2019s seventh Assessment Report (to be completed in 2029).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

In the press release, the IPCC claimed<\/strong> that human combustion of fossil fuels \u201chas resulted in more frequent and more intense extreme weather events<\/strong> that have caused increasingly dangerous impacts on nature and people in every region of the world.\u201d This is contrary to the IPCC\u2019s position<\/strong> hitherto, which is that almost all types of extreme weather events cannot be attributed with confidence to human activity.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The position of the IPCC regarding the lack of any link between climate change and extreme weather events is contrary to the almost daily headlines in the mainstream media attributing specific adverse weather events to \u201cclimate change.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The work of eminent climate policy analysts Steve Koonin and Roger Pielke Jr. has done much to expose the\u00a0pseudoscientific nature of what has been called \u201cattribution studies.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0These typically involve researchers who apply their climate models and historical observations to conclude that any particular weather event (say a hurricane or a drought) was made \u201cmore likely\u201d or \u201cmore severe\u201d by some magnitude in percentage units due to \u201chuman influence\u201d (referring to the combustion of fossil fuels).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Based on the dubious claims of \u201cattribution science,\u201d New York<\/strong>\u00a0Gov. Kathy Hochul signed a\u00a0climate law<\/strong>\u00a0last week that will require companies operating in New York state responsible for large amounts of planet-warming pollution to contribute to climate damage repair efforts. Under the new state law, companies responsible for the bulk of emissions from 2000 to 2018 will be on the hook for some $3 billion a year over the next 25 years.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Koonin cites the World Meteorological Organization<\/strong> that states that \u201cany single event, such as tropical cyclone cannot be attributed to human-induced climate change, given the state of scientific understanding.\u201d The IPCC\u2019s \u201cSpecial Report on Extreme Events\u201d<\/strong> states that \u201cMany weather and climate extremes are the result of natural climate variability \u2026 Even if there were no anthropogenic changes in climate, a wide variety of natural weather and climate extremes would still occur.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nonetheless, international organizations<\/strong> such as the World Bank and the IPCC have been increasingly politicized to serve climate hysteria<\/strong>. In this context, Chris Morrison of The Daily Sceptic finds that \u201c[f]ears are growing that the IPCC could water down or even ditch its current finding that almost all types of extreme weather events have little or no sign of past human involvement, or any going forward to 2100.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

International Energy Agency<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

On Dec. 23, U.S. Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., ranking member of the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, released a report documenting how the International Energy Agency \u201chas moved away from its energy security mission to become an \u201cenergy transition\u201d cheerleader.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report finds that \u201cFrench President [Emmanuel] Macron\u2019s observation that IEA has become the \u2018armed wing for implementing the Paris Agreement\u2019<\/strong> is regrettably true. With the many serious energy security challenges facing the world, however, IEA should not be a partisan cheerleader. What the world needs from IEA<\/strong>\u2014and what it is not receiving now\u2014is sober and unbiased analyses and projections<\/strong> that educate and inform policymakers and investors. IEA needs to remember why it was established and return to its energy security mission.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The divergence of the IEA away from its original mission<\/strong> to advise policymakers in its member countries with sound analysis of trends in global energy supply and demand to becoming a \u201ccheerleader\u201d for radical net-zero emission policy targets has not gone unnoticed over recent years. I have written on the ideological approach adopted by the IEA in its advocacy for green causes here<\/a>, here<\/a>,<\/strong> and here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When ideological advocacy becomes the measure of achievement for the IEA, the loss of credibility and soundness of its policy advice is only to be expected. The IEA\u2019s messianic fervour for green technologies<\/strong> such as solar and wind power, \u201cgreen\u201d hydrogen, batteries, and electric vehicles prevents<\/strong> it from asking basic questions.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If\u00a0<\/strong>it is true that drastically\u00a0cutting back on fossil fuels is consistent with higher economic growth<\/strong>\u00a0and increased productive employment,\u00a0why<\/strong>\u00a0does the IEA recommend policymakers\u00a0force countries along \u201cnet-zero\u201d pathways?<\/strong>\u00a0Surely, if replacing fossil fuels with wind and solar energy and electric vehicles promotes growth and employment, then wouldn\u2019t countries such as China and India naturally race toward this best of all possible worlds without expensive green subsidies and punitive anti-fossil fuel policies?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Trumpian Revolution Looms<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Nonprofit organizations<\/strong> reflect the needs of their funding members, and organizations such as the World Bank, IPCC, and IEA are no different. As their funding<\/strong> is primarily from the U.S. and the EU<\/strong>, it is not surprising that they manifest the \u201cclimate emergency\u201d predilections of<\/strong> the Biden administration<\/strong> and<\/strong> the largely left-socialist West European governments<\/strong> that see climate change as an existential threat and a national security priority. In taking up the mantle of green advocacy on behalf of their paymasters, these organizations have lost all credibility as independent and objective advisors<\/strong> for their member countries.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

The climate-industrial complex fears the\u00a0prospect of the Trump administration\u2019s pullout of the Paris Agreement<\/strong>\u00a0for the second time. Politico, a reliable mouthpiece for the climate establishment, expressed these fears soon after Trump\u2019s election victory: \u201cThe world is bracing for President-elect Donald Trump to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement for the second time\u2014only this time, he could move faster and with less restraint.\u201d In\u00a0Europe<\/strong>, the emergence of\u00a0populist parties<\/strong>\u00a0has been partly propelled by the widespread\u00a0rejection by EU citizens<\/strong>\u00a0of the onerous\u00a0fiscal burdens imposed by green policies.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n
