Climate

This week there will be a climate change meeting in Egypt and the UN secretary says the rich countries should give money to the poor countries. And it is why I am asking that all governments tax the windfall profits of fossil fuel companies.  Some of the big emissions countries will not be there, countries like China, India and Japan. These three countries account for 70% of new coal plants and they will be building 3 new plants every week. Nearly 360 U.S. coal plants have shut or plan to shut in recent years, compared with about 170 plants that remain active, according to the organization.Aug 10, 2022 UNITED NATIONS —  The U.N. Secretary-General appealed Monday to developed nations to make good on their promise of $100 billion a year to support climate action in developing countries, ahead of a November climate review conference in Egypt.
