That's a pretty poor report, actually. Disappointing. 📂 Archived Message Posted by Der on November 16, 2021, 4:08 am, in reply to "Carbon Brief's assessment of Cop26 (very comprehensive)" First of all, it's way too long with a lot of useless information. It's written by 10 people - presumably the same 10 blind people who described an elephant once. They badly need an editor. I just skimmed it. More a sort of a skim of a skim, really. Ongoing. Maybe... Incidentally, they must have money to burn - sending 10 people to the Cop for 2 weeks! They're also very gullible with their optimism. Mainstream even. No mention of capitalism. That seems to be a trend with well off green organisations. It's probably no coincidence that green is the colour of money. Or so they tell me. Another one worth reading, or avoiding (they've been arriving in my inbox), incidentally, is the World Resources Institute - their list of Directors takes some beating - members of World Bank, Goldman Sachs, ex president of Mexico, what have you. They too are now back from the Cop ready for the fight having planted seeds or dug them up or some such nonsense. And they want your money. Maybe somebody feels like going through this report with a fine toothcomb (do people really comb their teeth?). Anyway, I reckon everybody had a great time in Glasgow. That's the important thing. I'm going back to sleep.. Message Thread: Carbon Brief's assessment of Cop26 (very comprehensive) - Der November 15, 2021, 4:26 pm That's a pretty poor report, actually.
