Repeating the annual United Nations<\/a> ritual yet again, COP30 will run from Nov. 10 to Nov. 21 in Belem<\/a>, on the edge of Brazil\u2019s<\/a> northwestern Amazon rainforest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The city will host some 70,000 scientists, activists, journalists, politicians, and observers (including CFACT<\/a>), who will party, participate in endless meetings, and plot ways to convert waning worries about a planetary climate crisis into continued sinecures for those who profit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This 30th Conference of the Parties of the United Nations<\/a> Framework Convention on Climate Change intends to \u201caccelerate global action\u201d on climate change through \u201cmultilateral cooperation\u201d and \u201cnature-based\u201d solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its key priorities include limiting industrial-era (post-Little Ice Age) global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, advancing \u201cjust transitions\u201d from fossil fuels to \u201cclean, green, renewable, sustainable\u201d energy, and addressing social and economic impacts resulting from climate changes imposed on poor countries by rich developed countries, primarily by transferring trillions of dollars from rich to poor nations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other \u201ccore themes\u201d include protecting rainforests and other sensitive areas and creating a global \u201cbioeconomy\u201d that \u201cprioritizes the sustainable use of biological resources\u201d (plants, animals, microorganisms and their derivatives) to produce food, energy, raw materials, and other essential products \u201cwhile minimizing environmental harm and promoting social equity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diversity, equity, inclusion, social and climate justice, \u201cnet zero\u201d and special concern for women and children who will be most \u201cgrievously impacted\u201d by so-called climate change remain the guiding principles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

COP30 arrives hot on the heels of an International Court of Justice decision declaring that all countries are obligated to prevent climate change and ensure a clean, healthy, sustainable environment for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This supposedly includes the United States, even though it withdrew from International Court of Justice jurisdiction 39 years ago, will officially withdraw from the Paris climate accord in January, will not participate in COP30, and is unlikely to pump billions of dollars more into U.N.<\/a> climate funds for leftist notions of \u201creparations\u201d and \u201cresilience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

COP30 and other U.N.<\/a> and European Union programs will also attempt to encroach on U.S. sovereignty, especially through mechanisms such as the \u201cBaku to Belem Roadmap\u201d for climate finance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, British House of Lords member Daniel Hannan observes that all 50 U.S. states \u2014 including Mississippi, the poorest of them all \u2014 are now richer than Britain. While Britain lessened use of fossil fuel energy to assuage its climate fear neurosis, thus destroying its industries and jobs, Mississippi\u2019s pro-growth policies and cheap fossil and nuclear energy increased household incomes by 6% in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, the average electricity price for British households now equals 35\u00a2 per kilowatt-hour and is projected to rise to 54\u00a2 by 2026 or 2027. By comparison, families pay 19.5\u00a2 per kilowatt-hour in Pennsylvania, 15.1\u00a2 in Florida and 13.5\u00a2 in Mississippi. No wonder many Britons can\u2019t afford to heat or cool their homes, and their employers can\u2019t afford to stay in business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ironies, insanities, hypocrisies, and hard realities hardly end there:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
