The 30th Conference of the Parties<\/a> on climate change (COP30) will promote its climate, energy, and economic fantasies and demands from November 10\u201321 in Bel\u00e9m, Brazil. Some 70,000 grifter scientists, activists, politicians, and journalists (plus observers) will attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite pre-summit hype and proclamations of hope, the summiteers are nervous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Increasing evidence demonstrates that claims of a planetary crisis are rooted in meaningless computer models and fearmongering<\/a>, not in actual science<\/a>, data, or fact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More voters worldwide are rejecting and rebelling against net-zero and <\/a>anti-fossil-fuel policies that have raised energy costs, destroyed jobs and industries, and crushed hopes and living standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the poorest U.S. state (Mississippi) now boasts a higher GDP per capita<\/a> than climate-obsessed Britain, where the average household price of electricity is $0.35 per kilowatt hour (likely to rise to $0.55 per kWh<\/a> by 2027) \u2013 compared to a 17.5\u00a2 U.S. average and 13.5\u00a2 in Mississippi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UK industries now pay the world\u2019s highest electricity prices \u2013 27% more than equally obsessed Germany \u2013 and conservative\/alternative political parties in both countries are surging in popularity<\/a> against the entrenched interests that imposed these destructive, job-killing, unsustainable policies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The United States economy is outpacing Europe\u2019s, largely because the Trump administration has re-embraced abundant, reliable, affordable fuels, petrochemicals, and electricity, while Britain, Germany, and most of Europe refuse to drill or frack for oil and gas or retreat from their unattainable climate pledges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump agencies have slashed subsidies, favoritism, and environmental fast-tracks for wind and solar projects \u2026 and clawed back billions of dollars<\/a> that the Biden administration had given<\/a> to \u201cgreen energy\u201d and \u201cclimate justice\u201d groups during its last weeks in office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Trump again withdrew the United States from the Paris climate agreement, may not let US representatives participate in COP30, and is unlikely to allow U.S. taxpayer money to flow into UN slush funds for climate \u201creparations,\u201d \u201cresilience,\u201d or \u201closses and damages.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Trump also excoriated net-zero policies<\/a> before the UN General Assembly, calling them a \u201cgreen scam\u201d concocted by \u201cstupid people that have cost their countries fortunes and given those same countries no chance for success.\u201d UN member states chastened by the Russia-Ukraine war, growing dependence on Russian gas and Chinese minerals,<\/a> and wind turbines \u2014 and their own economic demise were hard-pressed to disagree. Developing countries also paid attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the Net-Zero Banking Alliance \u2014 beloved by eco-imperialists<\/a> for opposing and preventing financing for fossil fuel projects in Africa and around the world \u2014 has ceased all operations following a mass exodus by its U.S., Canadian, British, and Swiss bank members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe 2.1 billion humans<\/a> who suffer in abject energy poverty\u201d and families of \u201cthe 16.5 million loved ones\u201d who died from \u201cindoor air pollution during the 5-1\/2 years the Alliance was working\u201d can now breathe sighs of relief, said energy realist and human rights campaigner Ryan Zorn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The EU Parliament agreed to roll back multiple<\/a> environmentalist mandates and regulations on businesses, in what Politico<\/em> calls an \u201cemerging rightward rupture that is reshaping European policymaking.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Criticism of junk climate and energy science in UN, U.S., and other government and academic institutions has become frequent and furious since President Trump was reelected in November 2024, and the shackles of government, media, social media, and search-engine censorship have been loosened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The world is rapidly learning<\/a> about wind and solar power shortcomings; their decimation of raptors and other wildlife; the massive mining and pollution<\/a> involved in manufacturing these \u201cclean, green\u201d energy systems; the millions of acres of farm, habitat, and scenic lands impacted by them; the trillion-dollar costs of battery and gas backup systems for windless and sunless periods; and the economic devastation that climate-centric policies are inflicting worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developed and developing nations alike are beginning to realize they have been asked to destroy the world with wind-solar-battery systems that can never meet growing electricity demands \u2026 to save it from climate crises that exist only in computer models and fevered imaginations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The net-zero, extreme weather, climate science consensus is breaking apart as COP 30 nears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expectations that the \u201cclimate crisis\u201d will continue providing bureaucratic and activist sinecures, \u201crenewable\u201d energy subsidies, and globalist controls over our energy, livelihoods, and living standards are slamming headfirst into these realities. No wonder climate-power wannabes are worried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A German climate activist analysis<\/a> epitomizes the worries, fantasies, duplicities, and exigencies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* The United States still has \u201cthe greatest historical responsibility for global greenhouse gas emissions,\u201d the analysis complains. Its authors ignore the fact that China\u2019s greenhouse gas emissions exceed those of all other<\/a> developed countries combined, and the U.S. has reduced its emissions<\/a> far more than any other country, while its inventions have helped improve health, agriculture, and living standards globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* The U.S. and other \u201cGlobal North\u201d nations share liability for the climate crisis and must begin paying poor nations for mitigation, adaptation, and reparations, the activists continue. COP29\u2019s agreed \u201ccollective quantified goal\u201d of $300 billion annually is far too low, too vague, and too ambiguous. A \u201cconcrete action plan\u201d must be implemented to ensure a \u201cmobilization target\u201d of $1.3 trillion annually<\/em> \u2013 from nations and corporations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where that money will come from is anyone\u2019s guess, especially since the payers are supposed to deindustrialize, end their fossil fuel use, de-grow their economies, and slash their living standards. How much of any actual funding will end up in developing country bureaucratic fiefdoms and Swiss bank accounts \u2013 instead of projects that actually improve energy, health, and living standards \u2013 is also vague.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* \u201cClimate adaptation\u201d is another COP30 priority, the analysis attests. Adaptation to what? One wonders. Temperatures that have risen modestly since the Little Ice Age ended and Industrial Era began? Sea levels that have risen slowly and slightly since their 400-foot upsurge after the Pleistocene glaciers began melting? Hurricanes and tornadoes that are not<\/em> increasing in frequency or intensity? Carbon dioxide levels that are helping forests, grasslands, and crops grow faster, better, and with less water?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* Never mind all that, the Germans suggest. More money is needed for adaptation, and still more for a \u201cjust\u201d energy transition and \u201ccivil society\u201d demands for \u201csocial dialogue, human rights, the inclusion of [now unpaid family member] care and informal work,\u201d and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* \u201cClimate injustice\u201d also requires that \u201cthe biggest historical emitters must be the first to get their domestic emissions down to zero\u201d \u2013 and must not do so by buying Net-Zero Banking Alliance overseas (for often imaginary or promissory CO2 reductions). Thus, more deindustrialization and de-growth. And on and on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* Attention must also be paid to \u201cintersectionality, gender-diverse terminology, and gender equality.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, leftist-climatist-Islamist intersectionality requires denunciations of Israel. \u201cProtests against Israel\u2019s war in Gaza\u201d must be assured greater \u201cfreedom of expression and freedom of assembly in and around the COP\u201d and worldwide, the Germans assert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What on Earth does COP30 have to do with the recent Gaza war \u2013 especially when charges of genocide<\/a>, human rights violations<\/a>, and denial of assembly rights to Hamas terrorist supporters<\/a> are totally absurd?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

COP30 promises to be just as entertaining, pointless, and fruitless as previous iterations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
