The documents - obtained by independent journalists at the Centre for Climate Reporting working alongside the BBC - were prepared by the UAE’s COP28 team for meetings with at least 27 foreign governments ahead of the COP28 summit, which starts on 30 November.

Of course they are. It’s gonna be hard to spend all that money when everyone is dead!
The rich are killing us all, but don’t seem to realise that they won’t be escaping either. Shit rises to the top.
They’ve already built bunkers for themselves.
I hope they enjoy living in fear as the world dies around them. They’ll get a few more years than the rest of us, and somehow they think this matters.
Most of them are older than 80 anyways.
I’m sure the billionaires that feel like they just have to travel the entire world in building-sized yatches, and living in gigantic villas, as well as having private jets to fly everywhere, would love to spend the rest of their lives in a security bunker with the same people (that definitively won’t ever rebel).
Sad to say that I’m not surprised. The sooner we wean ourselves off of oil the better. Unfortunately, because of greed and lying politicians, it’s going to be longer than we thought.
The headlines still all seem to be about countries increasing their use of oil and coal while promising reductions sometime just far enough in the future. It has been this way for years I guess, but now the world is literally on fire and they’re still ramping up fossil fuels.
I shouldn’t be laughing so hard, every time I think about this it has me in fits of giggles. Fucking post satire reality has broken my sense of humour.
Global climate action in a nutshell.
i honestly don’t understand, what else would they talk about?
not suprised tbh
Most ironically, that might have been actually more climate friendly than not to use this opportunity. Think about it. Those talks would have taken place with or without this summit, but without it, delegates would have needed to fly there separately.
I mean… I guess it’s relevant as a topic? 😔
On par with those talks. At least those ones can be productive, unlike all the greenwashing they’re usually doing.
